WHAT EVIDENCE DO I NEED TO PROVIDE TO SHOW MY GOODS ORIGINATE IN THE UK?

If you are happy that your goods meet the Rules of Origin then you will need to know how to evidence this in order to satisfy customs.

The Trade and Cooperation Agreement provides detailed guidance on what you need to provide and, what evidence you need to keep in your records. For help understanding the requirements call  EU Exit helpline on 01642 662778 or email: EUBusinessSupport@teesvalley-ca.gov.uk

DO YOU APPRECIATE THE IMPORTANCE OF INCOTERMS?

Incoterms may be a relatively new concept to many importers and exporters. However, ensuring that you fully understand the Incoterms you agree upon, with your suppliers and buyers, is vital. The Incoterm you trade on will have a domino effect on your requirements under the sales contract. Subsequently this can lead to potential cash flow issues, disruptions at customs and affect your profit margin.

For help understanding the Incoterms you can watch our webinar on the topic, call EU Exit helpline on 01642 662778 or  email: EUBusinessSupport@teesvalley-ca.gov.uk
