FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Yes. Current Customs regulations prohibit importing into or exporting from the Republic without valid registration. Proof of registration is mandatory for lawful clearance.

 

Unless otherwise specified, provide the following: Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Incoterms, and detailed movement instructions (origin, destination, timelines, special handling notes).

 

Incoterms are internationally recognised rules—11 standard terms assigning responsibilities between seller and buyer. They stipulate who pays for which leg, where risk transfers, and what documents are supplied.
Example: EXW (Ex Works)—the buyer bears all costs from pickup to final destination, aside from the seller’s packaging.
