Introduction

Statistics Compliance Unit (SCU) collects statistics on ships’ and aircraft’s stores and fuel loaded for consumption on board the ships and aircraft.  The owner or agent of any vessel or aircraft leaving Singapore must submit a statement declaring whether any stores or fuel have been taken on board to SCU via fax number 63346923 not later than the 15th of the following month for the compilation of the statistics.

No Customs OUT Permit is required for such items.  However, for dutiable sea stores, the procedure for application stated in Customs Circular 24/99 must be observed.  In-Payment and Transhipment/Movement permits are still required where appropriate.  Failure to comply with the requirement constitutes an offence under the Regulation of Imports and Exports Act (Chapter 272A).


Declaration of Ships’ Stores

The owner or agent of any vessel leaving Singapore must declare the total value of stores in the statement to SCU.  Stores include all items supplied for consumption or use on board the vessels, or items subsequently transferred to vessels anchored in international water, e.g. ship’s spares, supplies and provisions for crew and passenger, lubricating oil and greases, etc, but exclude bunker fuels.


Declaration of Aircraft Fuel and Stores

The owner or agent of any aircraft leaving Singapore must declare the quality and quantity of jet fuel taken into the aircraft’s fuel tanks.

The owner or agent of any aircraft leaving Singapore must declare the total value of stores to SCU.  Stores include all items supplied for consumption or use on board the aircraft, e.g. aircraft’s spares, supplies and provisions for crew and passengers, etc, but exclude jet fuel.
