Pay your Broker Deferred Account

The information below outlines the requirements by you for paying your Broker Deferred Account.


Pay your Broker Deferred Account

We will email you a detailed account statement on the first calendar day of the month.

You must pay by the 20th of the following month or the next working day if the 20th falls on a weekend or a public holiday.

We only accept payment by direct debit.

If you adjust an import entry after we generate a statement, you will have to pay any differences in the next payment run.

If you don’t pay in time, we may:

  • withdraw the facility from you
  • use the security you gave us to pay the overdue debt.

We reserve the right to:

  • take possession of uncustomed goods and sell them to offset outstanding costs
  • recover the debt from the importer
  • take any other appropriate actions.

We will only reinstate your account when you have paid us in full. You must apply in writing.

If you have questions about your statement, contact the Revenue Management Team by email: revenue@customs.govt.nz
