Vehicle concessions
Dear Editor,
My understanding is during the first decade of the 21st century, Guyanese students who were re-migrating were eligible for duty-free concessions on their personal belongings and effects, and on a motor vehicle which they would have owned in the country from which they are emigrating.
The student would have been required to be overseas for 4 or more years to enjoy those concessions, except that students studying for less than four years but more than 3 years were also eligible. In this latter instance, proof of study was required.
According to my understanding, the students would have been required to claim the concession within 6 months of resettling in Guyana. In respect to the motor vehicle, it was a requirement that the said vehicle be acquired in the country of the emigree, and this ownership had to be for at least six months prior to re-migrating.
The present rules now allow for concession on a vehicle purchased locally.
