The Directorate emphasizes that the specified mobile phones in the official list will be subject to duty and taxes based on these revised Customs Values.
Additionally, for used or refurbished mobile phones imported by “bonafide passengers,” assessments will be made using the customs values. This incorporates an allowance for depreciation, as reflected in the tabulated values.
This move expected to streamline the import and assessment process, ensuring transparency and fairness in the valuation of mobile phones in the country. Stay tuned for more updates on this evolving story.
