NameHCFC Import License
DescriptionImports of refrigerators, air-conditioners, and refrigerant gas which contain ozone-depleting substances are, starting in 2013, being phased out and may only be imported by registered importers in possession of a HCFC Import License. The HCFC Import License allows for either the import of cylinders containing HCFCs or refrigeration on air conditioning equipment containing HCFCs.
CommentsImporters wishing to import equipment containing HCFC are required to register with the National Ozone Unit located in the Ministry of Commerce. Only those importers who imported HCFC cylinders in 2012 are eligible to register going forward. All other importers are eligible to register to import refrigeration or air conditioning equipment. Once registered the importer will require a separate license each time they import these products. The importer is required to present a valid registration certificate and license document with other Customs declarations at the time of import.
