OBSTACLES DURING CUSTOME CLEARANCE

COMPLEX DOCUMENT AND PROCEDURE REQUIREMENTS

The requirements and procedures for processing Customs Clearance are quite complicated and complex. This makes exporters/importers hesitate to take care of it themselves. Not to mention the completeness of licensing documents related to Lartas policies.

Time and place of Customs Clearance

The Customs Clearance process must be carried out at the loading/unloading port. The owner of the goods must come to take care of it directly. Of course this requires quite a bit of time and resources.

Difficulty in communication and coordination with port authorities

For exporters/importers who are not used to managing Customs Clearance, they usually don't know who to communicate with at the port. This makes coordination not on target and worries about managing Customs Clearance.

Costs that need to be incurred to process Customs Clearance

Sometimes companies have procedures and conditions that make payments take time. Meanwhile, when processing Customs Clearance, you are required to immediately pay for goods handling, warehouse rental, loading/unloading costs for a faster process.

Difficulty communicating on weekends and holidays

Customs Clearance at the General Directorate of Customs and Excise is only carried out during working hours. So during weekends and holidays communication with several parties during Customs Clearance processing becomes hampered and delayed.

Understand and identify goods affected by Lartas

There are also Lartas goods that require licensing documents from technical institutions which are attached when processing Customs Clearance. Identification of goods requires matching the character of the goods with the HS code of the goods. Identification errors will affect the subsequent Customs Clearance process, and even result in longer processing times.
