2) Key Steps and Notes for Forging Machinery Clearance
1. Selection of HS Code
HS Code (Harmonized System Code) is one of the most essential steps in clearance. It is an international standard for classifying goods and determining duties and tariffs. Each machine has its specific HS Code depending on type and function.
Sheet cutting and punching machines: These usually fall under HS Code 8462.29, covering shaping and cutting of metals without complex mechanical operations.
Rebar cutting machines: These are generally under HS Code 8462.99, used for machines specifically designed for cutting rebars and similar materials.
Incorrect HS Code selection can cause serious problems, including unexpected duty increases or seizure of goods.
2. Preparation and Submission of Required Documents
Accurate documents are vital, including:
Commercial Invoice: Full details of purchase, price, technical specs, and delivery conditions.
Certificate of Origin: Issued by the Chamber of Commerce of the origin country, impacting tariffs and trade agreements.
Packing List: Provides packaging details, used in physical inspections.
Technical Certificates: Includes CE and ISO standards proving compliance with international safety and quality requirements.
3. Compliance with Standards
Machines must comply with Iranian and international safety/quality standards.
CE Standard: Mandatory for European imports.
ISO Standard: Ensures global conformity in quality and management.
4. Calculation of Duties and Taxes
Duties are calculated based on CIF value (Cost + Insurance + Freight).
VAT: Value Added Tax is also applied.
All duties must be fully paid before clearance.
5. Customs Inspection and Approval
Customs experts verify compliance of machine specs with documents. Physical checks may be done. Final approval means delivery to importer.
