Are you using the right kind of customs permit for your shipment in Singapore?
There’s a bewildering array to choose from and you need to select the right one for your activity or risk having your goods rejected and possibly receiving a penalty.
So, here’s the list:
- INP APS
- INP BKT
- INP DES
- INP GTR
- INP REX
- INP SFZ
- INP SHO
- INP TCE
- INP TCI
- INP TCO
- INP TCR
- INP TCS
- IPT BKT
- IPT DNG
- IPT DUT
- IPT GST
- OUT APS
- OUT BKT
- OUT DRT
- OUT TCE
- OUT TCI
- OUT TCO
- OUT TCR
- OUT TCS
- TNP BRE
- TNP REM
- TNP TTF
- TNP TTI
- TNP IGM
Whilst some of them are quite straightforward, many of them require further information to be disclosed in a particular format (such as place of release).
Do you know what they are all for, and when to use each one for the different categories your goods might fall into?
It’s critical that you choose the right one, or use a customs declaring agent which has the necessary experience to do so.
