Imports and Exports
Import / Export declarations
Export Control System (ECS)
The new electronic export confirmation messages replace the "Travelling Copy 3" form which was formerly stamped by the Office of Exit and returned to the trader as proof of export. Honeycourt can help with the integration of these confirmation messages, which support the zero-rating of VAT on the export sale. ECS also handles the "pre-departure" messages required for the EU Safety & Security initiative. Again, Honeycourt can help to ensure that your business is ready to meet these mandatory requirements. CAP refundsEC traders exporting milk, eggs, wheat, rice or sugar, or products containing these as ingredients, can qualify for export refunds under the Common Agriculture Policy (CAP) scheme. CAP Refunds are claimed from the national agency (e.g. the Rural Payments Agency in the UK) via the electronic export declaration, and modifications to your computer system may be required in order to generate the correct Customs Procedure Codes and other data which must be submitted in respect of the claims. We can provide the know-how. USA Prior Notice of Imported FoodsSince the end of 2003, it has been necessary to provide "prior notice" to the Foods & Drug Administration (FDA) of all food products being sent to the USA. This notice takes the form of an electronic submission made either directly to the FDA or via the Associated Broker's Interface. We can help to produce messages in the correct format for transmission, to avoid delays at the USA border. |
