Goods worth 5.1 million BAM arrived in the warehouses of the Indirect Tax Administration (ITA) in eight months, including cars valued at almost half a million BAM.
”The total value of temporarily confiscated goods this year is lower compared to the same period last year, when the value of seized goods was 8.8 million BAM,” the head of the Department of Communications in the ITA, Ratko Kovacevic, said to “Glas Srpska”.
As in previous years, textiles were confiscated the most, and were worth 1.47 million BAM, while cigarettes and tobaccowere in second place, valued at 990.156 BAM. In the warehouses of the three regional centers of the ITA, vehicles were also confiscated vehicles, whose value is around 448.000 BAM.
In all four regional centers, i.e. Banja Luka, Tuzla, Sarajevo, and Mostar, officials confiscated various car parts worth more than 307.000 BAM, as well as used windshields costing 26.000 BAM.
The list of temporarily seized goods is long, and this year among the confiscated items there were fans weighing 307.200 BAM in the area of the Regional Center of Banjaluka.
Kovacevic explained that all seized goods are subject to customs violations, which are dealt with by the courts in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH).
”We are waiting for the court proceedings to end in each individual form. In the end, those court decisions stated how we continue to deal with confiscated goods. It is usually sold at auctions,” concluded Kovacevic, Biznis Info writes.
