Customs Clearance & Certification

Customs clearance for industrial equipment involves more than submitting a declaration — HS code classification directly affects import duty; some equipment categories require conformity certificates or technical approvals before release; and errors in documentation cause costly port detention. We manage the complete customs process for equipment imports into the UAE and GCC countries.

What is included

• HS code classification and import duty calculation
• Preparation of import declaration and supporting documentation
• Coordination with customs brokers at Jebel Ali and other UAE ports
• Conformity certificates and technical permits (ESMA, DEWA, and other regulatory bodies where applicable)
• Duty relief assessment — free zone, re-export, and temporary import regimes
• Handling of customs queries, inspections, and document corrections

How the project proceeds

1. Review cargo documentation and classify equipment under the correct HS codes
2. Determine applicable duty rates and identify potential relief regimes
3. Prepare and submit the import declaration with all supporting documents
4. Coordinate with customs and port authorities through to cargo release

Why Infinity

We combine customs expertise with deep knowledge of industrial equipment — understanding what a machine actually is, not just what the invoice says, allows us to apply correct classifications and avoid misclassification penalties.
