    Gabon 24 April 2020

    Directorate General of Customs and Indirect Taxes – Gabon 24 April 2020 Measures adopted to combat the COVID-19 pandemic 1. Measures to facilitate the cross-border movement of relief consignments and essential supplies 1.1. Designation of a Customs Focal Point/COVID-19 Monitoring Unit. 1.2. Note granting relief from Customs duties on imports of products to be used in fighting COVID-19 (gloves, bibs, alcohol-based hand sanitizers, Thermoscans (ear thermometers), etc.). 1.3. Appointment of a Customs representative to the Steering Committee for the Fight against the CORONAVIRUS, for the emergency procedure (signing BAEP (automatic temporary clearance note) forms on behalf of the Director General). 2. Measures to support the economy and ensure supply chain continuity 2.1. An emergency funding window for companies, to help incorporated SMUs and micro-enterprises (and, on an exceptional basis, large companies) that are up-to-date with their tax and social security obligations and affected by the COVID-19 crisis and which undertake to maintain jobs. This does not involve budget funding but bank credit offered to companies on favourable terms. 2.2. A tax window open to socially responsible companies and workers. There are three (3) measures relating to this window, namely: ✓ The fall in trading licences and in combined withholding tax (ISL); ✓ Tax rebates to socially responsible companies (Corporation Tax and Personal Income Tax); ✓ Tax exemption for all bonuses awarded to workers who engage in their professional activity during lockdown. The object of this tax window is to help companies that keep on their workers to display solidarity and set a good example, and to motivate workers exposed to risk during lockdown.
