Brexit: Import Customs Declarations
Ian Simmonds • April 7, 2019
If the UK leaves the EU Customs Union, UK companies which only trade with the European Union will need to follow new processes and complete new forms, such as customs declarations. Completing import customs declarations can be complex and companies will be liable for any mistakes in the paperwork. Errors with import documentation can lead to:
- Imports being detained by UK Customs
- The overpayment of customs duties and import VAT
- Supply chain delays
- Civil or criminal penalties
We can assist you with your shipping documentation and import declarations.
