The most frequent error on this tariff line is dispatching consignments before confirming that the BEE energy label affixed matches the exact star-rating and parameter format prescribed under the 2026 Regulations — a label from a prior or parallel BEE scheme does not satisfy Notification No. 5506/BEE/S&L/AL/2025-26. Non-compliant labelling at the time of customs examination results in consignment detention and potential ground rent accumulation while a rectification or re-export order is pursued.
