Please ensure that your Pre-shipment Inspection Certificate is valid prior to attempting to apply for an import permit. The Trade Board Limited considers the receipt of fraudulent document(s) as an intention to engage in dishonest, unlawful and illegal activities aimed at undermining the operations of the Government of Jamaica and will apply the appropriate actions were necessary.

Additionally, importers will incur penalties for breaches under the Customs Act, if licensable items are imported before obtaining an approved import permit from the Trade Board Limited.
