Emergency lights are designed to provide illumination during power outages and critical situations. These lights are often installed in public places, hospitals, residential, and commercial buildings. Their main feature is the ability to automatically switch on during a power failure. These products have built-in rechargeable batteries that provide the necessary energy for long-term operation. Some emergency lights also have self-test features to ensure battery health and proper device operation.
2. Rechargeable Lights
Rechargeable lights, due to their ability to be recharged repeatedly, are an ideal option for household and professional use. These lights are used where electricity access is limited. Various types of rechargeable lights exist, powered by lithium-ion, nickel-metal hydride batteries, or even solar panels. Due to their durability and efficiency, they are widely used in industries such as oil & gas, mining, and construction.
3. Flashlights
Flashlights are one of the most commonly used tools due to their portability and ease of use. They are produced in different types, including tactical flashlights, industrial flashlights, and general-purpose flashlights. Tactical flashlights are specially designed for military and security forces and have features such as shock-resistant body, waterproofing, and high brightness. Industrial flashlights are suitable for specialized uses such as technical inspections and working in dim environments.

4) Steps for Clearing Electrical Goods from Customs
1. Preparing and Submitting Documents
One of the fundamental stages in clearance is preparing and submitting the required documents to customs. These documents must be fully and accurately prepared and include the following:
Purchase Invoice (Commercial Invoice): The purchase invoice must precisely include the price, quantity, and technical specifications of the goods and be confirmed by the seller and buyer.
Bill of Lading: The bill of lading is issued by the carrier and includes details such as origin, destination, and type of goods.
Certificate of Origin: This certificate indicates the producing country and must be issued by competent authorities in the country of origin.
Customs Declaration: The customs declaration records the goods’ specifications, value, customs tariff, and other details required for clearance. It must be prepared accurately and completely and submitted to customs.
2. Compliance with National and International Standards
Importing electrical and electronic goods into Iran requires compliance with national and international standards. These standards ensure imported goods meet specified requirements for quality, safety, and performance.
Iran National Standards (such as ISIRI): Imported electrical goods must comply with Iran’s national standards covering items such as electrical safety, energy consumption, and durability.
Standard Approval Certificate: To clear goods, presenting a certificate of conformity from accredited authorities is mandatory. This shows compliance with national and international standards and must be submitted to customs.
3. Inspection and Quality Control
Some electrical and electronic goods may require special inspections and quality tests. These inspections are usually requested by customs to ensure compliance with required standards.
Quality Tests: Quality tests include evaluating performance, safety, and durability, usually conducted by accredited laboratories. Tests may include resistance to heat, humidity, impact, and various environmental conditions.
Inspection Reports: After testing, inspection reports are submitted to customs so the goods can receive final clearance approval.
4. Calculating and Paying Customs Costs
Calculating customs costs is a sensitive step in the clearance process. These costs include customs duties, Value-Added Tax (VAT), and other related charges.
Customs Duties: Duties are calculated based on the HS code and the value of the goods. Rates vary depending on the type of goods and country of origin and must be calculated precisely.
Value-Added Tax (VAT): VAT is also calculated on the total value of the goods and must be paid to customs. Failure to pay this tax accurately and on time can result in clearance delays.
5. Issuing the Release Note and Finalizing Operations
After completing all the above steps and receiving final approval from customs, the goods are ready for release. Issuing the release note is the last stage, meaning the goods are free from customs and authorized for transport to the final destination.
Issuing the Release Note: After a thorough review of documents and payment of customs costs, customs issues the release note, confirming clearance and authorizing transport to the warehouse or destination.
Final Transport: After issuance, the goods can be transported to the final destination via the appropriate mode. Choosing the right transport (road, sea, or air) and proper supply-chain management can significantly reduce costs and lead times.
