Dear All,

INDONESIA - Food Supplement, Cosmetics and Chemical Products

New requirements with regards to Food Supplements, Cosmetics and Chemical Products importation are in place by Indonesia Customs, effective August 1st  2011:

-  Required a full set of the MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet)  or COA (Certificate of Analysis) must attached to the consignment and available at PACS.
-  Should the documentation be unavailable in PACS, the system will be updated with the 'IX' status code.
-  Should the documentation be unavailable in the physical form (hardcopy), the system will be updated with the 'OR' status code.

Failure to comply with these regulations will lead to clearance delays.

IRAN - Incorrect Product Codes - Import Consignments

Further to the broadcast made on 13th April 2009, please be informed that issue of receiving XPS(15N) consignments under DOX (15D) product is continuing and IRAN customs have delayed all our DOCUMENT bags clearance, which is eventually affecting the Transit Time of Document Consignments in to IRAN.

We kindly request you to please use the correct product for XPS (15N) consignment. Consignments received as DOX(15D) instead of correct product XPS(15N) will attract penalty.

With Warm Regards,
BMC
