What taxes if any are payable and the relevant Customs procedure?

  • Custom duties for import clearance.
  • Carry-on radio frequency equipment attracts a Detention Notice for which SMA is required to give approval for entering into Jamaica.
    Once this approval has been obtained, the client proceeds to pay applicable duty (if any).
  • If the radio equipment is unaccompanied or of high cost insurance and freight (CIF) value, a C87 customs entry is to be completed and submitted to the SMA for the appropriate approval.

Following approval, the client returns to custom to pay any applicable duty.
