On the other hand it is customs, might be easier to go with something else to go through like tourism, and then we could still decide how to approach the bureau, on the other other hand we could also try repairs with the bureau, and then have customs documentation to back up our con. Might leave a trace though.
We could go with something like.
"Hey, man, we're her on business. I run a small repair crew and we got a contract. Apparently someone blew their TX-500 unit. Those things are expensive as hell, anyways, we are supposed to repair it, or recycle it if that don't work out" *chit chat* "Know any good joints in town? Job's only tomorrow, might as well celebrate." Etc.

Con's not a terrible liar, what with all the practice, and has a skill of 2 (and Charisma of 4) Additionally he also has Presence with the force. That adds three to social rolls, which I am just going to assume lying is.
I think that makes him tied best in this group with Azarl, so I'll go ahead with that plan, unless there's last minute disagreements.

It's always best to double down on lying. I mean I assume the immigration doesn't actually need to see the permit that's prolly a different department, they are just trying to make sure we aren't lying. So I'd suggest something like this.
"Oh yeah, we just got authorized recently. Now, thing is, my cousin over there, he's a bit slow" *points at Xavier* "so he forgot to bring it. It's all in order though. I got notified about the job from a buddy, we used to work together in a crew on Coruscant and he knew I was looking to start something up, so he bypassed an open contract. Look this is a huge job for us and we just traveled for a week to get here. You know usually you don't get the permit checked anyway and if some need to see the permit my mom will send it over. Should be just a couple days"
Hacking their systems to create a fake job request would take more time than you have and probably raise suspicions. A fake permit is possible.

Con- It's possible that on a small moon like this, they would alert port authority to incoming starships. But you sound so sure of yourself that you got the call...
"We can't allow you to operate in this sector without proper authorization," he insists.

"Yeah, I get that, look I'd hand it in the second I get it..." when Xavier hands Con the permit he will exclaim "Oh, he didn't forget it after all" Then turn to Xav. "Why didn't you just give it to me right away, you idiot. Alright, we got the permit." Con will pretend to be very relieved "Man, that would have been a disaster of a first job"
Relle watches Con's false bantering with a hint of amusement. She just wants to get to the surface already and start figuring out how to break into the Bureau offices.
One success from Xavier means his on-the-fly permit or authorization codes aren't very convincing, and actually puts Con at a penalty for Lying checks.
"Uhh... I... don't recognize this permit code," says the controller. "Are you sure you've got the right system? This is a Republic-authorized mining ouptost..."

"Yeah it's definitely this system. We wouldn't travel 2 weeks to the wrong system. Seriously though, I picked the permit up myself, if there's a mistake it was made by the agent, it took months to apply and I spend a whole day at the permit office. I tell you it's almost impossible to be a small business owner in the Republic nowadays, get this permit here, go talk to this agency there, wait 5 months and spend all your credits, and then some idiot switches a number or a system around and you end up with crappy documentation. I'm no specialist, it seemed right to me. Really I just want to go in, fix that blasted TX-500 and get paid. I'm sorry, I shouldn't take this out on you, but man, you know this crap can be frustrating, you seem like a nice guy though. Look, obviously we got documentation, maybe just let us go do the job, and we check out what the damn mistake in our permit is later?"
Con will rant a bit. Maybe I could use savoir-faire to embellish the lies with some info about the planet?
