De-notification of Customs Area and termination of Container Freight Station custodian and Customs Cargo Service Provider authority effective 07-01-20...
Classification of goods turned on technical composition and SAFTA eligibility; the tribunal applied precedent to hold that low nickel content (including around 1%) does not itself exclude SAFTA benefit and that the personal technical knowledge attributed to the Customs House Agent (CHA) was insufficient to establish culpability. On that basis the tribunal concluded the record does not support invocation of penalty under section 112(b) of the Customs Act and set aside the penalty, granting consequential relief.
