Finance Minister Miftah Ismail has announced that the government was allowing the imports of all items that have reached the ports by June 1 despite a ban on import of luxury items. Taking to his official Twitter handle, the finance minister said that even after the government banned certain luxury goods temporarily, many shipments of these items reached the ports. “To avoid losses to importers, the government is allowing the imports of all items that have reached our ports by June 1 with a small surcharge,” Miftah Ismail wrote. Moreover my colleague @faisalsubzwari the Maritime minister and I are trying that these importers have to pay little or preferably no demurrage or container detention charges. For this of course we need cooperation of container terminal operators and container owners.
