TACTICAL RELEASE 1 Post November 2018

New “Declaration Type” data field – 3 new declaration types RCD = current Regular Complete Declaration RID = Regular Incomplete Declaration [New] RPD = Regular Provisional Declaration [New] RSD = Regular Supplementary Declaration [New]

Pre-November 2018

TACTICAL RELEASE 1 Post November 2018



AGENDA ITEM 4

Summary of Key Features

• New Act “simplified clearance” under the current ‘64 Act. − Section 39B and new Rules – Simplified clearance (2 step processing). − Section 41 and updated Rules - Invoicing.

• Enhanced CUSDEC − New data field ‘Document Type’ – 3 new declaration types [RID, RPD, RSD]. − Activation of ‘invoice no. and date’ for exports. − Activation of ‘SUR’, duty tax type for security/surety. − MRN on RID/RPD to be reflected as ‘Original MRN’ on any successive clearance.

• Enhanced clearance process − Incomplete/Provisional clearance to be followed up by a supplementary clearance

within 7 calendar days. [RID/RPD + RSD = ‘Due Entry’(final entry)]. − Surety to be declared in lieu of duty and on the RID/RPD. − Regulatory permits applicable on RID/RPD. − RSD - to apply ‘assessment date’ of original RID/RPD. − RSD - duties to be paid. Surety to be uplifted /refunded. − Applicable for Imports and Exports, but limited to specific CPCs. − Excludes imported tobacco and liquor products.

RID = Regular Incomplete Declaration - RPD = Regular Provisional Declaration - RSD = Regular Supplementary Declaration



AGENDA ITEM 4 Summary of Key Features continued…

• New Status Messages [CUSRES] − Status 54 – Conditional release for Incomplete/Provisional clearance. − Status 55 – Conditional release for Incomplete/Provisional clearance – detain

for OGA. − Statuses 56 to 60 – to be introduced in next phase. − Status 61 – Accept Supplementary declaration.

• Operational Matters − Importers/Exporters to indicate preference for Incomplete/Provisional

clearance on a clearing instruction. − Declarants to maintain a record of reasons for which information is incomplete

(not available) or provisional. − SARS to monitor non-compliance – i.e. non-acquittal of RID/RPD clearances.

RID = Regular Incomplete Declaration - RPD = Regular Provisional Declaration - RSD = Regular Supplementary Declaration



AGENDA ITEM 4

Identifying Priority Needs

• 2-Step Processing is voluntary, open to traders who may not have all the information available to them at time of clearance.

• As such, trade is in the best position to assist SARS in determining which procedures to provide 2-step processing.

• SARS will circulate a survey for importers, exporters and brokers to indicate their preference/s.

Trade Survey Feedback by 13 March
