Which level comes second in the Tri Level System of Appeal?

• A. Appeals to the Comptroller
• B. Appeal to the Customs Appeal Commission
• C. Appeal to the Supreme Court
• D. None

Answer: (B)

In a tri-level system of appeal for customs decisions, the process moves from the initial administrative ruling to an independent review before any court case. The second level is the Customs Appeal Commission. This body provides a formal, stand-alone review of the Comptroller’s decision, allowing the appellant to challenge how the duty, penalties, or ruling were applied and whether proper procedures were followed. It sits between the initial decision and potential court action, giving a chance to correct errors without immediately going to the judiciary. The first step is appealing to the Comptroller, and if further challenge remains, the final step is seeking judicial review in the Supreme Court.
