Are physical permits or documents required for cargo clearance after I made a SGAC-Cargo submission?
If you have successfully submitted your vehicle information and the corresponding Cargo Clearance Permit (CCP) numbers for your journey via the MyICA Mobile App (under ‘Submit cargo clearance’) or the ICA e-Service, you are not required to present physical CCP(s) for cargo clearance. ICA officers will be able to retrieve the permit information tagged to your vehicle license plate number.
For the relevant export/ transhipment permits, you are required to stop and declare to officers at the checkpoint that you are carrying such permits.
You are also strongly encouraged to upload supporting documents such as commercial invoice, Bill of Lading/ Air WayBill, packing list, and Competent Authority (CA)'s license/ approval, together with the permit application via TradeNet before proceeding to the checkpoints. If you have successfully submitted your supporting documents electronically via TradeNet, you are not required to present physical supporting documents at our counter, thus enabling a paperless clearance process.
