Importers, Customs brokers can now check online for declaration status

Dec 22, 2012 News

The Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) has launched its online feature for monitoring Customs Declarations status by importers and brokers.
The feature has been accessible since December 17. According to GRA, it will save importers from taking unnecessary trips to Customs House. All that is needed is internet access.
Commissioner-General of the GRA, Khurshid Sattaur, explained that the feature will enable importers to better manage their time and to plan around the three-day maximum processing period.
Persons can access the information from home, their laptops or smart phones. He said it will also enable them to respond quickly in instances where documents are queried or consignment is flagged for enforcement check.
Similar to the Kiosk system (Customs Ticker) at Customs House and the wharves, importers, exporters or their brokers would be required to select the regime, the year, enter the declaration number and the Taxpayer’s Identification Number (TIN) and they will be able to view the current status after hitting the search button.
The system would be updated on a regular basis covering a period of fourteen days, GRA said yesterday.
For declarations lodged more than fourteen days ago, taxpayers would be required to use the Kiosk System at Customs House on Main Street or the wharves, which have an archive. “The GRA is urging importers and their brokers to take advantage of this new feature by visiting our website www.gra.gov.gy and clicking on the link under the heading “New” in the Newsflash box, which will take you to the “lookup Customs Declaration Status” page.”
GRA said it is also working to introduce a number of other services soon.
