Customs Declaration Form

Export Clearance

The T1 document, also known as a transit document, is a key element in international trade, facilitating the movement of goods across borders with minimal customs intervention. Issued for non-European Union (EU) countries, the T1 ensures that goods can move seamlessly through multiple customs territories without the need for immediate payment of duties and taxes. This document provides a crucial link in the logistics chain, promoting efficient and cost-effective cross-border trade by simplifying customs procedures and reducing delays.

Importing goods into the UK involves a series of processes and procedures to ensure compliance with customs regulations.
Here's an overview of the key steps:

EORI Registration:

Before initiating any import, it's essential to obtain an Economic Operator Registration and Identification (EORI) number. This unique identifier is crucial for customs declarations and is used throughout the import process.

Customs Classification:

Each imported product is assigned a specific customs code, known as a Commodity Code or Harmonized System (HS) code. This code determines the applicable customs duties and taxes.

Valuation of Goods:

The value of the imported goods is assessed for customs purposes. This includes the cost of the goods, shipping, insurance, and any other charges related to the importation.

Customs Declarations:

Submit a customs declaration, detailing information about the imported goods, their value, and origin. This declaration is typically submitted electronically through the Customs Handling of Import and Export Freight (CHIEF) system or the Customs Declaration Service (CDS).

Payment of Customs Duties and Taxes:

Pay any applicable customs duties and taxes based on the valuation and classification of the goods. This payment is usually made before the release of the goods.

Customs Clearance:

Once the customs duties and taxes are paid, and the declaration is accepted, the goods can be cleared for entry into the UK. This may involve physical inspections, depending on the nature of the goods.

Documentation Retention:

Keep all relevant documentation, including the customs declaration, invoices, and shipping documents, as they may be required for audits or future reference.

VAT Registration:

If the value of your imports exceeds the VAT registration threshold, you may need to register for Value Added Tax (VAT) and account for the applicable VAT on imported goods.
