GENERAL INFO: TEMPORARY IMPORTATION OF GOODS

-          Temporary Importation of Goods

This section relates to, for example, photographers, film crews, goods temporarily  imported for exhibition purposes, etc.

It is suggested that the goods be imported into South Africa under cover of an A.T.A. Carnet. A.T.A. Carnets are international Customs documents issued by Chambers of Commerce in most major countries throughout the world for purposes of allowing the temporary importation of goods, free of Customs duty, taxes, etc. and without the necessity of depositing amounts to cover the duties due and completing Customs documentation in foreign countries.

In the absence of an A.T.A. Carnet, release will be granted against lodgement of a cash deposit, which will be refunded on re-exportation under Customs supervision of the goods
