Artikel 4

1. Goods granted temporary admission shall be re-exported within six months from the date of importation. However Customs authorities of the country of temporary importation may, with due regard to the circumstances and in particular the duration and nature of the event, require that the goods be re-exported within a shorter period which shall, nevertheless, extend at least one month after the termination of the event.
2. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 1 of this Article the Customs authorities shall allow such goods which are to be displayed or used at a subsequent event to remain within the country of temporary importation, subject to compliance with such conditions as may be required by the laws and regulations of that country and provided that the goods are re-exported within one year of the date of importation.
3. For valid reasons the Customs authorities may, within the limits laid down by the laws and regulations of the country of temporary importation, either grant longer periods than those provided for in paragraphs 1 and 2 of the present Article or extend the initial period.
4. When goods granted temporary admission cannot be re-exported as a result of a seizure, other than a seizure made at the suit of private persons, the requirement of re-exportation provided for in this Article shall be suspended for the duration of the seizure.
