This one day course is designed to increase understanding of customs procedures for both imports and exports. It will consider the impact of the latest UK Customs Procedures and will explain in detail your obligations and responsibilities to HMRC. It will outline the duties and taxes currently payable on entry of goods into the UK and the bases of calculation, and also the need to produce a proof of removal for VAT reconciliation. The course will also discuss preferential and non-preferential origin and how to identify if your goods satisfy the rules of origin.
INCOTERMS (International Commercial Terms) comprise some of the most widely used, but most misunderstood aspects within international trade; they can impact on a number of areas of a company’s operations, including sales, accounts, operations, compliance and customer service.
If used correctly, Incoterms can avoid uncertainty, minimise delay and facilitate smooth operations, transport and payment. If you agree to use a term without understanding the full implications for your business, it can result in unexpected costs, obligations and delays.
Do you understand what a Commodity Code is? Do you know how to find out what your Commodity Code(s) should be?
Commodity Codes dictate your duty rating as well as alerting you to any import or export restrictions.
THIS half day course takes an in-depth look at the rules of origin, providing clarity between preference origin and non-preference origin and how to establish where goods originate “officially”.
