Import compliance paves the way for a smooth transition into another region. There are certain government regulations to adhere to.

It is important to identify the conditions contained in permits with the provision of the Regulations and for the detection of contraventions of the Act according to ITAC. Import compliance is set in place to enforce environmental, security and safety factors as well as technical standards according to the product being imported.

There are also various domestic and international agreements on components of products that are prohibited from being imported. This can include certain dangerous substances that could endanger humans and the environment.

Import compliance also falls under a definitive system such as tariff lines and importation goods.
