PVA Explained – Customs Clearance

PVA stands for Postponed Vat Accounting, usually referred to as PVA. Your Customs Clearance Agent UK may advise if you are a business
importing goods into the UK, you can use the PVA system to avoid paying import VAT upfront on your shipment.
Your Customs Clearance Agent UK will explain that the PVA system was introduced after the UK’s exit from the EU and help business traders in the UK with their revenue and cash flow. Your Customs Clearance Agents UK will also advise you that the PVA System allows them to submit the import Customs Clearance declaration without having to pay the import VAT before the cargo clears through UK customs.
Your Customs Clearance Agents UK will explain that the postponed VAT payment will be the responsibility of the trader/business in your quarterly VAT returns, and the PVA option for VAT payments is available to all businesses and traders regardless of their establishment status, therefore any VAT registered trader can use the PVA system.
Your Customs Clearance Agent UK will also advise that when you decide to use PVA for the payment of import VAT, this then means the
Customs Clearance Agent is no longer directly responsible and liable for the enforcement of the import VAT payment and only responsible to
ensure that all elements on the import Customs Clearance declaration are declared correctly. Your Customs Clearance Agents UK will advise
you of this, for both direct and indirect representations in regard to the Customs Clearance declaration, this means that if a Customs Clearance Agent UK is acting as indirect representation of the trader on the customs declaration, the trader is still directly responsible for the
payment of the VAT via the PVA system.
