Goods brought to the Terminal

Overview

To comply with EU customs regulations, all goods requiring customs declarations must be classified using a 10-digit TARIC (Integrated Tariff of the European Union) code. This code determines the applicable duties, taxes, and restrictions.


Customer Obligation

When using the Company?s customs services, the Customer is responsible for providing the correct 10-digit TARIC code for each product subject to a customs declaration.

  • The code must be supplied in advance or at the time the goods are brought to the Company.

  • Failure to provide the correct code may result in delays, incorrect declarations, or non-compliance with customs regulations.


What Is TARIC?

TARIC is the European Union?s integrated tariff system. It is a centralised and multilingual database that consolidates:

  • All EU customs tariff measures;

  • Relevant commercial and agricultural legislation.

The purpose of TARIC is to:

  • Ensure uniform application of customs rules across all EU Member States;

  • Provide clarity and transparency to economic operators (importers/exporters) on applicable measures;

  • Enable the collection of EU-wide trade statistics.
