Updated 07 December 2023

We just received notification from the UK National ATA Carnet Organisation (UKNATACO) further to Circular 82 advising the extension of the Greater Facility for all foreign ATA Carnets that are currently in Israel.  Foreign Carnets with expiry dates between 01 December 2023 and 31 December 2023 will be granted an extension to the final date for re-exportation.

EFFECTIVE AS OF 24 OCTOBER 2023

Notification has been received from the UK National ATA Carnet Organisation (UKNATACO) that:

Israeli Customs have introduced a Greater Facility to help ATA Carnet Holders who are unable to re-export their goods from Israel due to the ongoing situation.

Foreign Carnets with expiry dates between 08 October 2023 and 31 December 2023 will be granted an extension to the final date for re-exportation:

• for any such Carnet, the time limit for re-exportation will be automatically extended for an additional three (3) months from its expiry date.

• this extension applies to all foreign Carnets provided that (1) the goods are already in Israel and (2) that the original time limit for re-exportation is between 08 October 2023 and 31 December 2023 

• the facility will apply automatically to any Carnets meeting the above criteria.
  .
• Note that this dispensation does not apply to Carnets that have already benefitted from an extension in the past. Goods which are currently in Israel under the cover of Replacement Carnet, with expiry date between 08 October 2023 and 31 December 2023, will need to request special approval for further extension.
