A word of counsel

The most common error on this tariff line is importing ahead of label affixation — consignments arriving without the BEE-compliant energy label physically attached are detained at port pending compliance, attracting demurrage and ground rent while rectification is arranged. The Regulations, 2026 are recent; confirm with the manufacturer that the label format and star-rating methodology satisfy the 26-12-2025 notification before shipment, not at the bill-of-entry stage.
