Approved Contract Manufacturer and Trader (ACMT) Scheme

ACMT can disregard specified value-added services and suspend imports for approved manufacturing arrangements.

Source checked · 11 October 2026

Key requirements

The page identifies semiconductor, printing and active-pharmaceutical-ingredient manufacturing, with other biomedical segments considered case by case. Overseas clients must have the specified non-registration or OVR pay-only status. Processing, assembly or testing can qualify when treated goods follow the authorised export, ACMT-person or final-customer paths. Failed or excess output has particular disposal conditions; self-destruction requires Comptroller confirmation. Approved import and re-import benefits have ownership and agency requirements. Match the actual goods flow and customer status to the scheme rather than assuming all services billed overseas are ignored. Keep destruction and movement evidence for the treatment claimed.
