Import and Export (Electronic Cargo Information) (Amendment) Regulation 2018 to be gazetted

     The Import and Export (Electronic Cargo Information) (Amendment) Regulation 2018 (Amendment Regulation) will be gazetted this Friday (October 5). 

     The Amendment Regulation seeks to extend the application of the Import and Export (Electronic Cargo Information) Regulation (Cap. 60L) to the Heung Yuen Wai Boundary Control Point, so as to enable the Road Cargo System (ROCARS) to operate at that control point upon commissioning. The ROCARS is now operated in all land boundary control points for customs clearance of road cargoes.

     The Amendment Regulation will be tabled at the Legislative Council on October 10 for negative vetting. Its commencement date will be announced separately upon confirmation.
