These regulations will help to facilitate the movement of goods.

They include ending temporary easements to customs controls at border locations which did not have customs control systems from 1 January 2021.

Regulations apply full customs controls to goods:

  • imported at border locations where declarations need to be pre-lodged in advance of arrival
  • exported at border locations without space to operate normal export processes

Regulations also allow goods with pre-lodged temporary storage declarations to be imported via border locations without temporary storage facilities.
