Which term refers to the act of bringing imported goods directly or through transit into a free zone?

• A. Abatement
• B. Assessment
• C. Admission
• D. Bureau

Answer: (C)

Admission refers to the act of allowing imported goods to enter a designated area, such as a free zone, whether the entry is direct or through transit. This entry status is what sets goods up to be stored, processed, or moved under the zone’s regulatory regime, often with different duties and procedures than goods entering the main customs territory. Abatement is about reducing duties; assessment is calculating the amount of duties owed; bureau is the agency or office that administers regulations.
