  2. your products were made in the EU, Iceland, Liechtenstein or Norway, or
  3. your products were imported into the UK or EU before 31 May 2016, or
  4. your products are not entered into free circulation but into a Customs relief scheme (e.g. customs warehousing, temporary import or Inward Processing – If the products are subsequently entered into free circulation a licence is required).
