Article 23 Relief from Duties

At the time of taking up their appointment, a Staff Member shall have relief from customs duties on the importation of furniture and personal effects, including at least one motor vehicle, that such items are for the personal use of the Staff Member or their Family Members. They shall also have the right to export such furniture and personal effects on the terminations of the Staff Member’s functions.

The right to relief provided for in paragraph (1) is subject to the conditions governing the disposal of goods imported into the United Kingdom under relief and to general restrictions applied in the United Kingdom to imports and exports.
