A rebate is a full remission or part reduction of import duties, subject to the importer’s compliance to specific conditions set out in the South African Customs and Excise Act, at the time of import. Every rebate item has its own extent of rebate as set up in the below schedules to the Customs Act.
Schedule 3 (industrial rebates),
Schedule 4 (general rebates), and
Schedule 6 (excise duties, fuel levy, and environmental levy).
To manage a rebate, importers must have a dedicated rebate store located within the Republic of South Africa and registered with Customs, wherein the rebate items are safeguarded.
