With respect to all official activities, SACU, its assets, income and property shall be exempt from all forms of direct and indirect taxation; however, SACU will not claim exemption from taxes which are no more than charges for public utility services.

SACU shall be exempt from customs duties, prohibitions and restrictions on goods imported or exported for its official purposes, including publications; it is understood, however, that articles imported under such exemption will not be sold in the Republic except under conditions agreed to with the Government.
