On 07 January 2022, the International Trade Administration Commission of South Africa (ITAC) called on stakeholders to submit applications for the use of Rebate Item 460.11/00.00/01.00: Used overcoats, car-coats, raincoats, anoraks, skijackets, duffle coats, mantles, three-quarter coats, greatcoats, hooded caps, trench coats, gabardines, padded waistcoats and parkas (but no other clothing articles) classifiable under tariff headings 61.01, 61.02, 62.01, 62.02 and 6309.00.13 in such quantities, at such times and subject to such conditions as ITAC may allow by specific permit.
Applications are due by 28 January 2022.
According to ITAC it is imperative that new importers acquaint themselves and comply with the interim guidelines, rules and conditions pertaining to the rebate provision concerned, together with the relevant application form, which are obtainable on ITAC’s website at www.itac.org.za by following the links: [‘Services – Tariff investigations – Government Gazette Notices – Other publication notices.’], before applying for a rebate permit.
ITAC also urged that applicants should submit a duly completed application electronically to Christopher Sako, email: csako@itac.org.za and Kokami Legodi, email: KLegodi@itac.org.za.
Note: Goods imported under this rebate item require both rebate and import permits. It is therefore advisable that permits in relation to rebate provisions, which are subject to a permit being issued by ITAC, be applied for and received before the goods concerned are cleared.
