  2. B
    A public warehouse
  3. C
    A private warehouse
  4. D
    A state warehouse

Cevap

A bonded warehouse
A bonded warehouse is a specialized facility licensed by customs authorities where imported goods can be stored securely without paying import duties upfront. The importer retains ownership and can withdraw goods incrementally by settling duties only on the specific quantities removed, providing essential liquidity relief.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the financial and regulatory challenge faced by the importer
The importer cannot pay the full customs duty immediately and requires installment-based clearance under legal supervision.
Import duties are statutory fees required before goods freely enter domestic commerce.
2
Evaluate the warehousing options against customs regulations and duty payment structures
A bonded warehouse is specifically designed to store dutiable goods under custom bond without immediate payment of import tax.
This facility grants working capital relief by matching duty payments directly with the batch release of goods.
