Dear Sir / Madam

REVISION TO THE FEE FOR PERMIT TO IMPORT FROZEN, CHILLED AND PROCESSED MEAT PRODUCTS

1. SFA will revise the permit fee to import frozen, chilled and processed meat products. The revised fee is $300 per permit and will come into effect from 18 Nov 2024 (Monday).

2. In preparation for this transition, there will be a downtime of SFA’s system from 16 Nov 2024 12pm to 18 Nov 2024 12am. Traders should avoid submitting permit application during this period. SFA will resume the processing of permit applications after 12am on 18 Nov 2024, when the revised fee will apply. We apologise for any inconvenience caused during the transition period.

3. The fees chargeable are shown in Annex A. SFA strongly urge traders to:

plan their permit applications around the system downtime; and to
keep a record (screen grab or system acknowledgement of the submitted permit application) should there be a need for reconciliation

4. Please do not hesitate to contact us at https://sfa.gov.sg/feedback, if you have any other queries.
