Customs select the companies from importers and exporters based on analytical studies

conducted by Risk Management Directorate that assesses companies' compliance; add the

companies to the SL.

The facilities that are provided to the SL companies are as follows:

1.

Access in green and yellow lanes.

2.

Benefit from pre-clearance service in accordance with the applicable regulations.

3.

Prioritize the completion of export and import Customs declarations of Silver List

companies via a special indication that appears electronically on the Customs

declaration.

Currently, 50 importers and 12 exporters are in the SL. The companies in the SL are reviewed

by office auditing at least once a year and continue their existence in the SL in case they are

compatible with membership conditions. The SL status holding companies that are eligible to

GL status are invited to apply for the GL program by the Customs.
