| Payment and Collection of Customs Duty [Cambodia] |
| Payment of duties is required right after document verification and before physical inspection because (1) there are no penalties for any non-compliance in making the declaration, and (2) it would take longer to clear goods if errors are discovered during inspection, since the importer would have to pay duties again, hence encouraging compliance. (JBIC 2004) Payments of duties are made to Customs Offices or at banks prior to the examination of the goods. Duties can be paid either by cash or certified check. |
