As part of Dubai Customs’ ongoing development programs aimed at devising simplified and effective procedures to enhance trade flows, the Customs Audit Department of Dubai Customs has introduced an initiative whereby inventory systems of FZ companies holding Customs business code with a trade license in Dubai shall be developed/upgraded consistent with the requirements of Dubai Customs electronic system.
The ultimate objective of the initiative is to facilitate customs inventory audit and unite the features of the inventory systems used by all companies holding Free Zone trade license in Dubai, so that these companies will be able to generate inventory reports that are consistent with the language used in Mirsal 2 system.
For better integration of all business stakeholders, the initiative also targets logistics and customs clearance companies that provide goods storage and management services for their customers in their warehouses at Dubai’s free zones.
So , kindly note that:
- All FZ companies with Customs business code that don’t have an inventory system, should implement a new inventory system which complies with the requirements of Dubai customs (as per the attached sheet) effective 1/1/2019.
- All FZ companies with Customs business code that already have an inventory system incompatible with Dubai Customs requirements must develop it to meet the specifications required by Dubai Customs (as per the attached sheet) effective 1/1/2019.
- More information can be found in the attached
