In the Fourth Batch of Draft Customs Control Rules for Chapters 32 to 41 released in December 2014, SARS incorporated an Annexure which contains the fixed amount penalties that will be applied in the case of non-prosecutable violations. Companies who are convicted of a non-prosecutable violation will receive an administrative penalty of between R 2 500 to R 10 000″ Should companies commit the same non-prosecutable breach again, the fixed amount can be doubled or tripled depending on the number of times the violation is commited. Failure to comply with the new Acts can be costly, so it essential that companies should look at boosting complaince levels by implementing effective controls, processes and policies.   Comment on the draft rules is due by 20 February 2015.
