- SARS is amending rules to facilitate customs-related submissions due to transfer pricing adjustments
- Lack of formal guide on disclosing TPAs and adjusting customs declarations led to the need for rule amendments
- TPAs can create uncertainty in customs valuation, leading to underpayment of import VAT and customs duty
- Importers must disclose retrospective TPAs and make submissions on their impact from a customs valuation, duty, and VAT perspective
- Failure to disclose TPAs could result in retroactive invalidation of a customs declaration and demand for additional payments
- Importers must comply with any further instructions issued by SARS after submitting a notification
