BRADES, Montserrat (GIU) -- Residents of Montserrat will once again be able to receive barrels for Christmas without having to pay the import duty fees.

The Ministry of Finance and Economic Management confirmed on Thursday that the Cabinet has approved the waiver of the customs duties on barrels for the period November 1, 2012, to January 15, 2013.

There will be a flat fee of $50 per barrels arriving at Port Little Bay and no importer will be allowed to use this measure to bring in items for resale. Each household will be limited to two barrels.
