Customs Declaration Process • Main legal provision for export of goods from EU is the Union Customs Code (UCC) • Export/Import declarations are needed for all exports to Non-Eu or “Third Countries”. Transit declarations may be needed for UK Land bridge. • Declarations can only be made electronically • Data input in your declaration will determine your routing in the AEP system • The trader is still liable for the data integrity, especially relating to value of shipment and correct commodity codes. • Cost the process to determine further actions @irishexporters
Tariff Classification • It is the most significant part of how customs do their business. It is at its core as ultimately, third country duties are calculated based on the type of goods you’re exporting • It will discharge liability from procedures associated with for example, inward processing, which is an economic cost • It will always be the responsibility of the exporter to determine the correct commodity code for their product. i. e. the trader themselves • Export controls will be based on these codes • Contractual terms of delivery must be reviewed in terms of third country trading @irishexporters
UK Inbound Customs and Land Bridge • Customs transit used to facilitate movement of goods between two points of customs territory • Allows for temporary suspension of duties, taxes and commercial policy measures • Common transit procedure in place in all 28 EU countries as well as Iceland, Norway, Liechtenstein and Switzerland, Macedonia & Serbia • Union transit operates between member states and applies where goods pass through a third country • Transit declaration is still required and is submitted electronically @irishexporters

OPERATIONAL MODEL Structure Assess current operational structure Strategy Mid to long term plan-operational changes Management Assign resources Target Review for implementation OPERATION ANALYSIS • For Supply chain, key areas of focus are transport and logistics, regulation and tax, customs and compliance. • Additional supply chain costs calculated as percentage of sales. This gives you a benchmark from which to improve operational efficiency. • Treat UK and NI trade as “third country” status. @irishexporters
Conclusion • Brexit is a disrupter, but it is possible to become operationally ready • If Brexit forces a market diversification strategy for your business, these actions can be used when shipping to other Non EU destinations • Mitigate the risk by preparing a practical operational plan • Compliance is always a good approach – transparency in your supply chain has many operational and financial / security benefits for your organization • Make use of the various government supports available at present • Contact brianmurphy@irishexporters. ie for any further assistance and information on supply chain training @irishexporters
