It would be great and valuable, if you kindly answer my doubt. Am going to import a machine (Non woven printingmachine) from china. Now, i have a friend in sea freight company service who has been saying me, he will get duty free machine clearance as he has "FOcUS LICENSE". Is it possible to import the machine under this license? And the license doesn't belong to him, he is getting from other person it seems. What will be the benefit to other person (Third party) if he uses the license and does charge only 5% of the duty value.
