Importers need a SARS customs client code, and declarations are normally lodged by a clearing agent. Chemical imports fall under environmental rules administered by the DFFE, and the Hazardous Chemical Agents Regulations govern classification in the workplace. ITAC permits apply to certain listed goods. APIs and scheduled substances need SAHPRA permits, and suppliers are expected to provide GMP evidence. Controlled precursors require separate authorisation. Dangerous goods must comply with IMDG or IATA rules.
