Me too smells fishyyyyyy.....Who on earth with even a milligram of brain spend 2.4 million to buy a permit with such uncertainty?
This whole story of permits is fabricated by vehicle dealers for their own benefits. .....Yes that's something i can not understand. Market is now very active and the selling price of a permit at 2.5M.
Many of them talking about new circula and there is a uncertainty whether it go up 5M again or bring down to 2M due to Exchange rate problems.
My question is, if new circula says it will be brought down to 2M, a permit issued under 2018/01 circula which was for 3.6M tax free allowance also get affected or not ?
What is the past practise ??

The law is still the same. However, the government has removed the embargo on transferring vehicles imported by permits.
Enforcement of the law becomes virtually impossible because of this reason. It's still illegal but they cant hold you accountable if you violate it.
Let me give you a similar example. Prostitution is NOT illegal in Sri Lanka. But working in a brothel is illegal. If someone is found to be working in a brothel, I think the fine is 100,000 or something. If you are a street prostitute, the only law they can charge u, is the vagrancy ordinance (I think the fine is around 100 for that).
Although street prostitutes cannot be effectively charged, it does not make prostitution legal, moral or ethical.
Similarly, although the law is ineffective, it doesn't make selling permits legal. Therefore I don't encourage it.
You cant break a law because everyone else is doing it. You can't blame the three wheeler guy who cut across you, the bike which overtook you from the left or the bus that drives on the wrong lane, if you yourself break the law. You cant blame politicians for corruption if you yourself don't care about the law. People in this country need to learn respect the law, even if its something as minute as not cutting across another vehicle. That's the reason why this country is in the shithole it is in.
So the USD 30000 permit still there ? Is that thread all information related to permit still applicable ?

Hi, welcome to the forum.
The "current scenario" is exactly what the OP of the quoted thread has asked. Old discussion or not, the law is the law. The advice given in that thread still applies. @Crosswind, since you are one of the first to respond in the thread, can you please confirm this is correct?
In sri lanka these laws changing yearly. ?

According to my knowledge.. 3.6 million benifit is still there... and they ll allow to open LC from 1 st of June onwards... according to the order the permits were issued...
A new circular is on the way. 3.6 million benefit is still there but it is suspended till 1st of June. if new circular issued before 1st of June new tax free allowance will be applicable.
my problem is if we buy a permit for 2.4 million now and if they reduce it to 2 million we still loss 4lac. ?

Government is going to reduce the tax free limit to 2 Million for a permit. So you will not be able to get any of these two for that budget.
