Daily settlement for customs clearance
Daily settlements
This is a settlement scheme where customs declarations submitted are paid collectively on the working day after customs clearance.
Daily settlements can only be granted freight forwarder companies who are customs clearing on behalf of other parties.
For companies without customs credit and private persons, ColliCare will calculate customs and tax costs, and invoice you directly. This invoice must be settled before delivery of your goods.
Responsibility for customs clearance
According to the act on customs and movement of goods, it is the importer's responsibility to ensure that goods are properly cleared through customs into the country before delivery and use. If it is unclear who the importer is, then the responsible party is the recipient. All taxes and duties must be paid in full before the Norwegian Customs Directory can make the goods available.
Customs credit
Customs credit is credit granted to companies who import goods from abroad. It simplifies payment of duty and taxes. As these are due on the 18th the following month, you may postpone payment of duty on imports. You can apply for a months credit by the Norwegian Tax Office when settling customs and duties from imports.
