CUSTOMS.AS is neither associated with, nor an American Samoan Government service (though we would like to be ), and should not be confused with ASG Treasury and Customs. Questions on official duty calculations, fees, import laws, regulatory compliance and policies should be referred to the Treasury and Customs Department of the American Samoa Government.
customas.as is merely a demonstration platform for illustrating how localization of business rules and the integration of our people’s life experience (referred to as "human factors" in software development) can be engineered into solutions for automating and driving consistency and quality for delivering positive outcomes in American Samoa that people will love
The business logic and Algorithmic scenarios used in creating customs.as for calculating excise tax, customs fees, and completing ASG Form Treasury Customs forms 205/A revised 4/24/1991, and Treasury Customs form 205 revised 1/20/1996 is based on the current regulatory environment of Title 11 Chapter 10 of the annotated code and ASG Customs policies as understood by the Trade and Supply Chain Community of American Samoa. Official determination of excise tax and fee calculation authority rests with ASG Customs Officials if the amounts calculated by customs.as and ASG Customs differ.
Tax exemption workflows for trips by persons 21 years or older for 11.1002(1)(a) Alcoholic Beverages and 11.1002(1)(b) Tobacco, and; accomodations for forwarding agent FAK consolidation documentation practices are not supported in customs.as.
