Which form is used to apply for remission?

• A. Form C49
• B. Form C48
• C. Form C41
• D. Form CB.7

Answer: (A)

Remission is a relief from some or all duties and taxes granted by the customs authority when certain conditions apply. To request this relief, the prescribed document must be used so the claim is reviewed in a consistent way. Form C49 is the official remission application form; it is designed to capture all the essential details needed for a decision, including who is applying, the entry or permit involved, a clear description and value of the goods, the duties assessed, the specific reason you’re seeking remission, and any supporting documentation. Using this form ensures your request goes through the proper channels and is considered with the right information.

Other forms are used for different customs procedures, so they aren’t appropriate for requesting remission. Relying on the remission form helps streamline processing and reduces delays because the authorities know exactly what information to look for and how to evaluate the claim. If you’re preparing a remission request, make sure you follow the current Bahamas Customs guidance on deadlines and required supporting documents.
