2. For goods temporarily imported for re-export or temporarily exported for re-import, customs clearance fees shall be collected only once at the time the import procedures are carried out.

3. Measuring unit for goods conversion to determine charge and fee rates: One cubic meter is equivalent to one ton (1 m3 = 1 ton).

4. Charge and fee payers shall have to declare the quantities of goods or means of transport requested for customs clearance according to the provisions of customs law.
