The exemptions took effect from February 16, 2026, and details of the exemptions are provided in the table attached.

In order to effectuate the new changes, specific HS codes were updated and some breakouts were created in ASYCUDA World (AW) to reflect the necessary changes. These HS codes in the table attached will be published in AW system to guide Importers and Licensed Customhouse Brokers on the specific HS Codes to be used when processing customs declarations for the below list of items: –

Double Cab Pickups not exceeding 2000cc.

1. Double Cab Pickups exceeding 2000cc but not exceeding 2500cc.
2. ATV’s only and NOT including UTV’s or any similar 4 Wheel motorized vehicles.

Brokers and Importers, please be advised that you are required to ensure that the HS Codes provided MUST match the description of the motor vehicles approved in the new Budget Measures of 2026.

Failure to comply may result in the declaration being deemed as “false” and penalties may be imposed depending on the circumstances.he Chairman
