Customs Transit

Customs transit means the customs procedure underwhich goods are transported under customs controlfrom one customs office to another.

Goods being carried under transit are generally notsubject to the payment of duties and taxes, providedthe conditions laid down by the customs administration

are complied with.

Customs international transit is the passage of aconsignment through a national customs territory, byentering the territory at a border office, port or airportand leaving the country via another office, in order tocontinue its movement to its final destination.

Customs transit systems are designed to facilitate themovement of goods crossing the territory of one ormore states without jeopardizing revenue throughdiversion of such goods to the domestic market.

Types of Customs Transit

There are three more important types of CustomsTransit:

(1) Community Transit: allows for the movement ofgoods within the customs territory of the Community;i.e. European Union, Mercosur, Alba, etc.

(2) Common Transit: allows for the movement ofgoods:-between a Community, the Community Countries (i.e.Mercosur: Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, Venezuela, etc),and

-between the Community Countries themselves;

The combined territories of the Community and theCommunity Countries are known as the CommonTransit Area.

(3) TIR: (Transport International Routiers)allows forthe movement of goods internationally over one ormore frontiers and where some portion of the journeybetween the start and end of the operation isconducted by road.
