Description

Since 2021, the UK has had full responsibility for its own customs territory. Businesses have been familiarising themselves with a new border operating model and a series of ongoing changes in customs procedures, technological platforms and customs legislation. At the same time, customs authorities in both the UK and overseas are increasingly scrutinising key areas of compliance.
It is important that staff are fully up to date with industry changes to maintain the flow of goods.
Do you understand basic customs procedures, the critical data for a customs declaration or the legal responsibilities of the importer/exporter? Which documentation do you need to use and why? Are you aware of the customs simplifications and authorisations that are available to help streamline your process or perhaps ease cashflow?
Unless staff receive adequate training, their first encounter with officialdom is often goods delayed in transit, scrutiny from overseas customs authorities, or a customs audit. The cost of non-compliance can be high – whether this be demurrage charges at port, the repayment of understated duties, the withdrawal of customs authorisations or civil penalties.
