What is the validity period of an Import Certificate (IC)?
An Import Certificate (IC) is valid for a year from the date of issue. The importation must be carried out within the validity period.
You may extend the IC for another year or up to the expiry of your export licence, whichever is earlier. The extension of the validity period must be obtained at least 14 days before the expiry date.
