Following an update on TAP recently, many sole proprietors received penalties on their TAP. This was because payment was made in the trading name rather than the name of the sole proprietor.
You should pay for the penalties when you have received notification of the penalty charged. Due this widespread issue of no fault of the sole proprietor, customs announced on how to appeal for the penalties
The appeal can be submitted to the controlling station. The payment slip or receipt of payment for online transaction have to be attached to the application as proof of payment.
Remission of penalty is subject to approval by the Director General of Customs Department.
