GST-
Leviability of IGST on High Sea Sales of imported goods and point of collection
|
|
|
Dear Members,
As you are aware, High Sea Sale is a common trade practice whereby the original importer sells the goods to a third person before the goods are entered for customs clearance.
However, with the onset of GST, there have been concerns about the points of taxation of IGST on such transactions.
In this regard, CBEC has issued Circular No. 33/2017-Cus dated 01/08/2017 whereby it is clarified that IGST on high sea sale (s) transactions of imported goods, whether one or multiple, shall be levied and collected only at the time of importation i.e. when the import declarations are filed before the Customs authorities for the customs clearance purposes for the first time. Further, value addition accruing in each such high sea sale shall form part of the value on which IGST is collected at the time of clearance
Concerned members are requested to take note of the same. For full details, Circular No. 33/2017-Cus dated 01/08/2017 can be downloaded using below link-

Thanking you.
Yours faithfully,
