What are the Customs procedures required to bring in general cargo for repairs in Singapore and subsequently return them to the country of origin?

Question

Accepted Answer

General cargo may be brought into Singapore for repairs under the Temporary Import Scheme. The approval of the temporary import permit is subject to the lodgement of a Banker's Guarantee (BG). The GST payable will be suspended at the time of import.

You may engage a local freight forwarding agent to obtain an In-Non-Payment (TCR) permit permit to temporarily import the cargo into Singapore. After the repairs, your appointed agent should obtain the corresponding OUT (TCR) permit to export the goods.The previous temporary import permit number must be declared in the "Previous Permit Number" field.
