Scenario - Importing from a Third Country
Purpose
This scenario describes the processes involved in importing goods into your country
from a third country. In this sense, a "third country" is defined as the country of export
when no trade agreement exists between your country and the exporter. In this case,
you are responsible for compliance with the import laws of your own country.
Reasons for Importing Goods
There are three primary reasons for importing goods.
Trade
Production
Transit
TradeThere are three main reasons why you may want to import for trade purposes:
Comparative advantage Some foreign manufacturers can make products more
cheaply.
Availability Some products are only available in foreign markets.
Marketability A product may be new and you want to market it in your entire country
or in a region of your country.
Production
It is sometimes advantageous to import raw or semi-finished materials to be used in amanufacturing process.
Transit
Foreign merchandise with the status "in transit" is exactly that passing through your
country on the way to another. At the plant level in the SAP System, this refers to a
goods receipt that immediately becomes a goods issue to a country other than the
location of your plant. A carnet TIR (document which allows passage of foreign
merchandise through a customs territory) may be required for the transfer of goods
under bond in your country.
