  • Certificate of Conformity (CoC): A CoC from the PVoC inspection is required for customs clearance.

  • Import Duties and Taxes: Import duties and taxes will be assessed based on the vehicle’s CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight) value. These may include:

    • Import Duty

    • Excise Duty

    • Value Added Tax (VAT)
