Customs and Trade Compliance in Lebanon
All imports and exports in Lebanon are regulated by Lebanese Customs under national customs law, with strict enforcement of importer accountability, valuation accuracy, and documentation discipline, especially for technology and medical shipments.
Key compliance requirements include:
• Mandatory customs declarations through accountable importer entities
• Correct HS code classification under Lebanese tariff schedules
• Accurate customs valuation supported by transaction documentation
• Import VAT and duty assessment where applicable
• Country-of-origin disclosure
• Product conformity and technical documentation review
• Declared end-use and end-user validation for controlled categories
As the Importer of Record, Uproot Technologies assumes full legal responsibility for customs declarations, VAT and duty exposure, regulatory compliance, and audit accountability, reducing operational risk for foreign shippers.
