If the ASEAN Customs Transit System (ACTS) declaration has been submitted for movement of goods under the ACTS, is it still necessary to take up a separate permit from Singapore Customs?

Question

Accepted Answer

For ACTS goods entering and leaving Singapore, traders are required to obtain the necessary import/export/transhipment permits via TradeNet to fulfil existing domestic requirements. This is in addition to submitting the declaration via ACTS to account for the ACTS movement. For movement of ACTS into the territories of other AMS, please check with the respective Customs Authorities on the relevant requirements.

Traders are advised to indicate "ACTS Movement" in the Trader's Remark field in the TradeNet permit application for shipments which are covered by an ACTS declaration.
