CUSTOMS CLEARANCES, IS THAT CONFUSING?

When shipping abroad, required documents and customs clearance can seem overwhelming.

Our Customs Clearance department will make sure all your shipments are handled correctly when clearing IN AND OUT of the United Kingdom.

All imports into the UK will have Tax and Duty applicable unless you qualify for exemption.

All goods are assigned a tariff classification, which notifies the customs authorities what goods are crossing the border.  In the UK, this is a ten-digit code on import.  At export, it is the same code with the last two-digits omitted.

The tariff classification determines the amount of duty and VAT paid, whether additional licenses are required or if additional border checks are required.

UK customs clearance requires also the value of the goods to be determined and declared.  This means the cost of the goods, freight, and insurance at the time of crossing the border.  Depending on which Incoterms® have been used, this may be the amount on the commercial invoice, i.e. CIF.

If an alternative term has been applied, the value is will need to be adjusted.

Duty and VAT are payable to customs by individual bank transfer, a prepaid FAS account, via a by deferment account or, in the case of VAT, delayed and accounted for in the company’s VAT return.
