Imported goods from the EU – Anything to Declare?
It is nearly 6 months since the UK left the EU on 31 December 2020. And as importers and exporters you need to be aware of some looming deadlines. The deadline for making a full declaration for EU imports that arrived after 31 December 2020 is nearly upon us. For those businesses who imported from the EU and made a Simplified Declaration or have yet to make any declaration at all, you need to be ready to make your full declaration at the 175 days later point. To help you prepare, you need to:
- Consider what records you should have kept
- Know what you steps you need to take now
- Ensure that you are following the rules
- Know what penalties may be imposed if you get it wrong
