Customs Declaration For the Import Of Motor Vehicles<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Here are the procedures governing the importation of motor vehicles into Guyana. The importation of commercial and\/ or non – commercial goods requires the completion of a Form C 72. Form C 72, commonly called the ‘Customs declaration’ or ‘entry’, is the primary document that is required by the Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) when goods are imported into Guyana. This form is also referred to as the Standard Administration Document (S.A.D)<\/em>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

* All motor vehicle ‘entries’ are entered into the Total Revenue Integrated Processing System (TRIPS) at the Entry Processing Unit   (EPU)<\/p>\n

* If importing a reconditioned motor vehicle, the canceled registration from the company or individual from whom the vehicle was purchased is required. It should be noted that new vehicles do not require a cancellation of registration.<\/p>\n

* The ‘entry’ is verified by the respective Assessing Officer at the EPU who checks to ascertain that the correct Customs Duty and other relevant taxes have been applied to the vehicle<\/p>\n

* The ‘entry’ is then sent to the Risk Management & Revenue Protection Unit (RM&RPU) for further processing<\/p>\n

* The ‘entry’ is then sent to the Commissioner – General for approval and further instructions. Once approved, the CG issues his instructions and the ‘entry’ is sent to the Supervisor – Entry Processing Unit (EPU) who then queries the ‘entry’ given the instructions by the CG. Once there are no queries it is sent to the Assessing Officer at lodgment counter so that the ‘entry’ can be uplifted by the importer, broker or agent<\/p>\n

 * If there is a query the importer, consignee, broker or agent is contacted so as to make the necessary adjustments.<\/p>\n

* When the importer, consignee, broker or agent uplifts the ‘entry’ from the Lodgement Counter, he\/she must proceed to the GRA Cashier and pay all relevant duties and taxes<\/p>\n

* After the payment is made, the importer, consignee, broker or agent then returns to the wharf to uplift his\/her import.<\/p>\n

It should be noted that, all motor vehicle entries are flagged for valuation and classification checks whether or not there are any discrepancies. After which there may be specific ‘entries’ that are selected for ‘document’ or ‘goods’ check. If ‘the entry’ is correct, this process takes approximately 2 – 3 days.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
