| Reports on countries
adhering to the Arab boycott of Israel |
| |
| Country:
Syria |
| |
Status: In
order to implement the Arab boycott of Israel, Syria has established rules to
simplify the importing process for clearing goods including:
Establishing a list of goods that are pre-qualified for import because
the product is not Israeli Requiring direct import to avoid re-importing to
avoid Israeli goods entering from third-party countries Requirement of
documentation the establishment of the imported product id not from Israel.
Documentation requires positive establishment of the products origin
and is meant to avoid asking specifically if the products are made in Israel,
thus working around the US anti-boycott laws.
Syrian Trade and
Boycott Compliance Regulations:
Imports from Israel and most goods
not on the permitted list, with certain exceptions, are prohibited. In
principle, imports must be made directly from the country of origin, without
the intervention of any foreign firm. All imports, except those valued at less
than £S2, 000 (£S 500 for imports from Lebanon) require import
licenses before the shipping date.
Two copies of a commercial invoice
in English are required. The consulate retains one copy when the documents are
submitted for legalization. The origin of goods must be specified. The invoice
must be notarized and then certified by the appropriate chamber of commerce.
The invoice must be in the name of the importer in Syria.
Persons
holding passports containing a visa for Israel will be refused entry |
