Goods imported into the EU are normally liable to duty and import VAT charges, however, should the goods be:
PROCESSED POST IMPORTATION;
IMPORTED FOR DISTRIBUTION TO EU CUSTOMERS OUTSIDE OF THE UK;
PUT TO A SPECIFIC END-USE;
IMPORTED AFTER REPAIR OR REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY; OR
BEING IMPORTED FOR STORAGE PRIOR TO DITRIBUTION OR ANY OF THE ABOVE OPERATIONS.
It is possible the liabilities that are normally due at the time of import are mitigated or deferred to a later point in time through the application of duty reliefs or regimes such as:
INWARD PROCESSING;
END USE;
ONWARD SUPPLY;
OUTWARD PROCESSING;
CUSTOMS WAREHOUSING.
We provide an initial no obligation free assessment of the benefits that may be achieved through the implementation of any duty relief or regime and can assist your business through the application process or provide a full management service for the day to day operation of any relief/regime once authorised.
