Goods, with the exception of liquor and tobacco, are allowed to be imported for repairs and other approved purposes such as stage performance, testing, experiments and demonstration without payment of duty and/or GST on condition that they are re-exported within three months from the date of importation. If the goods are not re-exported after the expiry of the given period, duty and/or GST will become payable.
If controlled goods are to be imported for under this Scheme, prior approval must be obtained from the various controlling authorities in Singapore. Any controlled goods found to have been imported without authorization from the appropriate controlling authority will be impounded or detained by Customs and referred to the appropriate controlling authority.
