- VAT-registered manufacturers receive relief on imported raw materials.
- Relief is subject to inclusion in a register published by the Commissioner-General.
- The register is valid for 12 months and updated every six months.
- This relief prevents manufacturers from paying VAT upfront at the port.
- Regular updates help prevent abuse of the incentive.
