(1) For purposes of selecting consignments for inspection, the Authority and participating government entities shall use the Pre-Arrival Assessment Reporting System to channel consignments for inspection based on their risk level as follows:

(a) “Red” for high risk consignment for documentary check, scanning and physical inspection;

(b) “Yellow” for medium risk consignment for documentary check and scanning;

(c) “Green” for low risk consignment for documentary checks only; and

(d) “Blue” for post clearance audit.

(2) On completion of a risk assessment under sub-regulation (1), the Customs Classification and Valuation Report generated by the Pre-Arrival Assessment Reporting System shall indicate the channel to be followed for the clearance of the goods.

(3) Where a consignment is channeled on the “Red” or “Yellow” route, the conveyance including the shipping container shall be subject to inspection and analysis.

(4) The channel specified under sub-regulation (2) shall be followed strictly unless there are reasonable grounds for the consignment to be channeled on another route.

(5) The Authority shall allocate resources to meet the number of risky consignments selected by the risk management system for full physical inspection.
