Classification/Assessment of Projects Imports,Baggage and Postal Imports

Project import classification simplifies customs assessment, enabling uniform duty assessment and expedited clearance under project-specific rules.

The Project Import Scheme groups goods for initial setting up or substantial expansion of registered projects under a single tariff heading and uniform duty, covering machinery, auxiliary equipment, components and limited spares, while excluding specified establishments and single machines. Registration of contracts with customs-supported by contracts or purchase orders, sponsor recommendations, project documentation and financial security-is required; provisional assessment follows import with a project contract registration number. Finalisation requires a reconciliation statement and engineer certification, with plant site verification where appropriate. Separate consolidated headings govern baggage and postal imports for personal use, with specified exclusions.
