It is a payment tool that offers a gain in time and costs; it reduces the clearance time of goods, and the risk of the reduction of the values of the goods, the falsification of OBR receipts, is also controlled.
This e-payment tool also aims to increase transparency, reduce fraud and corruption and secure documents.
The payment of customs duties and taxes is done in 3 steps:
1. Declaration of goods and establishment of the liquidation slip;
2. Electronic payment to the bank by cash, certified check or account transfer;
3. The bank issues a payment slip which is equivalent to the receipt normally issued by OBR agent;
If the declaration is paid to the bank, it will appear directly in the software of the OBR and the economic operator can get his goods out of the customs.
