Arabic term

بتحقق الواقعة المنشئة للضريبة الجمركية

Arabic to English Law/Patents Law: Taxation & Customs
This is from the executive regulations for Egypt's new VAT law.

في تطبيق أحكام المادة ٥ من القانون، تستحق الضريبة وفقا للحالات الآتية:
...
٤. بالنسبة للسلع المستوردة: بتحقق الواقعة المنشئة للضريبة الجمركية في مرحلة الإفراج عنها من الجمارك أيا كان الغرض من استيرادها


Does this mean, essentially, that the tax will be assessed when the customs duty is paid to release goods from customs? It's المنشئة that's tripping me up here.

after the cause for applicability of customs duty is duly verified

I think what I am pasting below is the original text of the law as published on the youm7 website:

وتستحق الضريبة بالنسبة للسلع المستوردة، أياً كان الغرض من استيرادها، فى مرحلة الإفراج عنها من الجمارك بتحقق الواقعة المنشئة للضريبة الجمركية، كما تستحق فى كافة مراحل تداولها داخل البلاد بعد الإفراج عنها

The tax will become payable for imported goods, regardless of the purpose of importation, during their release from customs after the cause for applicability of customs duty is duly verified...

upon ascertainment of the occurrence which generated the customs duty

This is what I came up with in translating this, which seems to confirm what you thought.
Example sentence:

In application of the regulations of item no. 5 of the law, the tax will be due in the following cases: 4. With regard to imported goods: upon ascertainment of the occurrence which generated the customs duty at the stage where the goods were released

from the customs house, irregardless of the purpose for which they were imported
