The Kurdistan Regional Government has sent a letter to the Federal Directorate of border crossings Abgletha the approval of the application of the customs tariff of the Federal Act on goods that enter the country through its subsidiaries border crossings, but it set conditions for that application.

According to sources, the conditions for the application of the provincial customs tariff in the outlets related to the size of customs duties levied on goods, where the province demanded the reduction of such fees in exchange for entry into the application of tariffs on border crossings operated by the provincial government.

The federal government has applied the law of customs tariff on all ports of entry and 30% on goods entering the country, including Kurdistan outlets, the latter declined the application and kept on the old tariff amounting to charge 5%, prompting traders to go Ngo region and the introduction of their goods through it and stay away from central and southern ports.

I gotta ask. So they agreed to the tariffs. Right. Yet they demanded a reduction of the percentage they have to charge on imports. Right. So they agreed and disagreed at the same time ??? Also, am I correct in understanding that the GOI is charging higher tariffs at certain ports then they charge at other ports ? Bottomline, sounds to me like this tariff issue isn't going anywhere fast for one or two reasons.
