Temporary permits

Everything OilServ moves across a border under a temporary regime carries a duty to move it back by a fixed date. This module holds the request until the permit exists, then watches the clock on that duty until the asset is re-exported and the case is closed.

✓Confirmed. The fourth tile shows measured approval time rather than a count. The lead-time KPI is back in scope, which is what turns the alert window from an estimate into a number you can set per corridor.

Nearest obligations

Temporary movements only. A one-off licence carries no duty to move the asset back

✓Confirmed. Alerts go to BU Logistics and to the Business Line, and the lead time is set per country and permit type by BU Logistics. That is why this column names two recipients rather than one.

Requests waiting on a permit

Nothing here can raise an RFQ

Request	Raised by	Movement	Held since	Status
TRF-2026-0193Well test equipment package	Buyer, Dubai	UAE to Kurdistan Region	18 Jul 2026, 2 days	On hold
TRF-2026-0186Choke and gas diverter manifolds	Buyer, Dubai	UAE to Saudi Arabia	4 Jul 2026, 16 days	Awaiting licence

Two ways a request gets held. A temporary movement waits for a permit and then carries an obligation. A one-off licence waits only for the paper, then the request is approved and the case is done.

Home / Requests

Requests

TRFs come from a Buyer purchasing outside the group. LORs come from a BU User moving an asset from another business unit. Both arrive here for BU Logistics to classify before anything is bought or booked.

✓Confirmed. Row three is a re-export. Closing an obligation raises an outbound TRF that runs the standard TRF, RFQ and SW workflow, which is where the 3PL is engaged. The permit module does not carry the movement itself.

Compliance classification

BU Logistics, recipient country

This is the fork. A permanent movement goes straight to RFQ. A temporary movement or a movement needing a licence puts the request on hold until the paper exists.

Movement type *

Asked before the RFQ, because a permit obtained after the freight is booked is a permit obtained late.

Reason

Drives the permit type and the expected duration in country.

Choose a movement type to continue.

✓Confirmed. BU Logistics holds and releases the TRF. International Logistics approves it and creates the RFQ. Two separate events, so the queue between them stays reportable.

Home / Requests / TRF-2026-0193 / New permit case

Permit case TP-2026-0044

Opened from TRF-2026-0193. Scope is one commercial invoice, and every line on that invoice is covered by this permit.

Draft

Scope

One permit covers one commercial invoice. Selecting the invoice pulls every line on it, so a permit cannot be saved against a partial line set. A request spanning two invoices generates two cases.

Commercial invoice and packing list *

The permit's unit of scope. Line items below are inherited, not selected.

Held against

OilServ reference

✓Confirmed. One temporary import permit or Saber certificate covers the whole shipping invoice. That makes the invoice the scope unit rather than the request, and it becomes a validation rule rather than a convenience.

Movement

Country and regime matter as much as port. The Kurdistan Region and federal Iraq are two regimes inside one country, with different authorities and different paperwork.

Date of application *

The date the file is submitted to the client or the authority.

Destination country and regime *

Sets the authority chain and the default alert lead time.

Issuing authority *

Each body gets its own submitted and received dates on the case.

Mode of transport

Port of entry *

Business line

Receives expiry alerts alongside BU Logistics.

Parties

In Iraq the permit is sponsored by the operator, not by OilServ, and the sponsor is not always the end client. Both are held, separately.

End client *

Who the work is for.

Sponsor or beneficiary *

The operator in whose name the permit is issued. OilServ is not the permit holder.

Contract or PO number *

How customs ties the goods to a project that qualifies for temporary admission.

Line items

Inherited from the selected invoice and validated against the asset master by asset code and serial number, so an asset carries its own permit history.

Description	Asset / serial	Asset master	HS code	Origin	Qty	Value	Weight
0812 swivel instrument	S/N 0812029	Matched	90159000	UAE	1 EA	EUR 44,750	105 kg

Lifting frame, DNV 2.7-3	LF-0093	Not in master	73269099	UAE	1 EA	EUR 8,400	220 kg

Total 3 lines, EUR 114,350, 1,165 kg. Lines are read-only because they come from the invoice.

✓Confirmed. Line items link to the asset master. Unmatched lines are flagged rather than blocked, since frames and consumables may not be registered assets.

Security lodged

Under temporary admission a guarantee or deposit sits with customs until re-export is proved. Missing the date costs the fine and the security.

15Still open. This is the one question that came back without an answer. Shown here as a full register, since type alone cannot produce an exposure figure or gate the closure of a case. If OilServ wants type only, everything after the first field is removed and the closure rule changes.

Documents

Certificates arrive in Arabic, Kurdish and English. They are stored against the case and searchable by asset, serial, business unit and permit type.

Validation

Checked when the certificate is filed

HSFor discussion. A warning needs a reference table of HS heading against permitted technical regulation, and that table needs an owner and a refresh cycle. Without one it decays and starts producing false warnings, which is worse than no warning. If nobody will own it, the fallback is to flag only when a product's regulation changes from the last accepted one.

Permits and licences

One register for all three paths, searchable by asset number, part number, serial, business unit, business line and permit type. Only temporary imports and exports carry a tracked expiry, so licences stay in the register but never reach the watchlist.

TE-2026-0007 is owned by BU Logistics in Dubai, the sending country, because a temporary export permit is obtained where the asset leaves from.

Home / Expiry watchlist

Expiry watchlist

Temporary imports and exports only, since those are the movements that carry a duty to bring the asset back. Sorted by days remaining, banded by how close that duty is, with owner and alert recipients named on every row.

Act now

Overdue or due within 7 days

Nothing overdue. This band is the one that costs money when it is not empty: a missed re-export forfeits the security as well as attracting the fine.

Alert configuration

Set by BU Logistics, per country and permit type

Country and regime	Permit type	Median approval	Alert lead time	Recipients
Iraq, Kurdistan Region	Temporary import	34 days	45 days	BU Logistics, Business Line
Iraq, federal	Temporary import	21 days	30 days	BU Logistics, Business Line
Oman	Temporary export	9 days	21 days	BU Logistics sending, Business Line

Lead time is set above the measured approval median, so an alert leaves enough room to actually complete a renewal. A single company-wide window would be too late in Kurdistan and noise elsewhere.

✓Confirmed. BU Logistics sets the lead time. BU Logistics and the Business Line receive the alerts. The forwarder is not an alert recipient, because the re-export is executed through an outbound TRF where the 3PL is engaged in the normal way.

Reports

The reports the requirement asks for, plus the lead-time KPI now confirmed back in scope. The pending report covers all three paths. Expiry tracking covers temporary imports and exports only.
