Sept permit application has been submitted. Thanks again for all your support.
The next import will be Oct 10th. Order cutoff is Sept 2nd.
I want to buy some bottom metal that isn't on the website, but you're able to source for me. What's my cut off for this? Can I still make it onto the October delivery?
Answered via phone. Yes.
Thanks.
September Permit Delay
Normally, by now we would have our export permits in hand for the September shipment and be getting packed up for the shipment this weekend.
However... at this point we are still waiting for Foreign Affairs to issue our IIC so that we can then apply to the DDTC and BIS for the export permits. Typically an IIC take 3-5 days... we are now on day 19! Our calls to them are answered with "there is no problem, we're working on it"
Maybe it's not a problem for them, but for us, it is definitely a problem.
So, at this point the Sept 5th import date is not going to be possible. Without the IIC in hand we cannot start the export permit application, so we are not able to predict the date... we can say that it will not be any earlier than the 19th because even if we get the IIC today, the US guys typically take 2-3 weeks to approve the permit applications... we can only hope that the DDTC and BIS are expedient this time and we are not pushed back too far.
I will update here as soon as we get the IIC.
Thank you all for you patience.
pesky borders
...I forgot that I ordered....stuff? Lol
September Permit Delay Update
We have received Foreign Affairs approval and are now waiting for the State Dept to permit the export. We have spoken with the agent and he does not anticipate any delays so the normal time and process will prevail.
Again, the shipment will not be any earlier than September 19th, considering the export permit timelines.
October Shipment
Our October 10th import is currently on time.
November Import Date
The November import is planned for the 28th. We have stretched it out a bit this time to allow everyone a little more time to get their Christmas wish lists filled.
The cutoff for orders on the Nov 28th import will be Oct 21st.
Thanks again to everyone for your support... and especially your patience with us during the Sept permit delay.
