Export Documents & Customs – Motorcycle Parts

Export Documentation for Buyer-Arranged Courier Orders

Delivery Bike Parts sells replacement motorcycle parts to customers in Botswana, Lesotho, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Malawi. When the customer appoints their own courier or freight forwarder, the customer and their representative should confirm all customs and transport requirements before collecting goods from South Africa.

Information needed for a commercial invoice

  • Seller and purchaser legal names, contact details and addresses
  • Invoice number and date, order number, destination country and currency (ZAR)
  • Each product's accurate description, stock keeping unit (SKU), quantity, unit value and total value
  • Verified country of origin and applicable customs tariff (HS) code for each part, when required
  • Applicable VAT treatment as determined under South African rules
  • Collection branch, agreed carriage arrangement and relevant exporter or agent details where required

Information needed for a packing list

Match the invoice to the actual goods and record the number of packages, contents per package, measured gross and net weights where required, dimensions and identifying references. We will confirm package information once the order has been physically packed.

Who handles customs?

Buyers must appoint a courier or clearing agent capable of completing the necessary transport and customs procedures. Exporter registration, customs declarations, permits, product restrictions and responsibility for filing the export entries depend on the facts of the shipment and applicable law. A customer-arranged courier does not remove mandatory obligations on South African parties. We will cooperate with lawful requests for commercial documentation and any procedures applicable to our role.

VAT

Buyer-arranged collection is not automatically exempt from South African VAT. Under SARS indirect-export rules, VAT may be charged at the standard rate, with any permitted zero-rating or purchaser refund dependent on statutory conditions and supporting documents. We do not promise zero-rated prices or VAT refunds in advance.

Restricted goods

Products containing liquid, fuel residue, batteries, pressurised materials or other regulated components may need special handling or may be excluded from a particular courier service. Please obtain approval before requesting collection of restricted or potentially hazardous goods.
