Matters Arising / New Matters / General:
|
- ACM is still on hold at the moment.
|
|
- Nomonde once again appealed to all present to please complete the Client
|
Questionnaires as and when they are sent out, as they serve the purpose of helping
|
SARS to evaluate their service to their customers.
|
|
- At the last meeting Mark N made the comment that whilst Emirates manifests are being
|
audited, SAA’s are not. Frans confirmed that SAA manifests ARE being checked now.
|
|
- CBCU continue to do a few stops each day, depending on the volumes, but there has
|
been no blitz lately.
|
For Customs stops – agents to liaise with Zaba.
|
For CBCU stops – agents to liaise with Mark.
|
Mark said the e mail he had sent out re stops created a bit of confusion. Deno asked
|
Mark if “one” e mail address can be set up for the purpose of stops.
|
|
Nomonde confirmed the procedures / requirements for Customs Supervision / Exams.
|
- The bookings are to be made at the enquiry counter at least 24 hours prior to the
|
supervision / exam taking place.
|
- Payments need to be made using the DA 73 at the cashier.
|
- The charge is R100 per hour.
|
- The DA 73, SARS receipt and all supervision documents to be present at the time
|
- of supervision / exam.
|
Supervisions / Exams that require bookings are:
|
-
EWP
-
Carnets
-
Export of Imported Goods
-
Export of Local Goods
-
DA 65
-
Destructions where necessary
-
DA 22
-
RIT and RIB (unpack / repack)
-
Any other supervision / exam, except customs stops
|
NB:
|
- Clients are to have two sets of all relevant documentation regarding the
|
supervision / exam.
|
- In the event where the client requires unbooked supervision / exam, an amount
|
of R200 needs to be paid.
|
- Clients need to produce processed entries at the time of supervision / exam -
|
not draft entries.
|
- The client needs to notify Customs if they are running late, or want to postpone
|
the meeting - they cannot just not turn up.
|
- E Mail and telephone bookings are not accepted.
|
|
- Nomonde said they had “0” acquittals outstanding at the moment. Mark thanked
|
everyone for their assistance.
|
|
- Zaba appealed to all Agents to resolve any pending items before month end -
|
which is SARS year end. Deno suggest that Zaba gives Agents a time period in which
|
to finalise any outstanding matters, failing which, their account will be put on hold.
|
|
- Frans raised a point which puts SAA in a bit of a predicament when releasing goods.
|
The customs document shows “released” but then there is an endorsement which
|
reads “documents still required”. The release counter very often cannot get into the
|
section where the comments are written. Frans feels this is very “loose”, especially if
SAA release the goods and then there is a query. Nomonde said the incident Frans
|
is describing is a first, but it still needs to be looked at from an IT point of view.
