What to expect from the Company

The Customer remains responsible for providing the correct 10-digit TARIC code.

Correctness of the TARIC Code

The Company shall, based on the information and documentation available to it, endeavour to perform a reasonableness check of the TARIC code provided by the Customer. This may include reviewing relevant product information and supporting documentation, such as a Certificate of Analysis, Product Specification or Safety Data Sheet.

Any such review is intended to identify apparent inconsistencies or discrepancies and does not constitute a determination or confirmation of the correct customs classification.

The Customer remains solely responsible for determining and providing the correct 10-digit TARIC code applicable to the Product and for ensuring that the information provided to the Company is complete, accurate and up to date.

Where the information provided gives rise to a reasonable doubt regarding the TARIC code, the Company may request additional information or clarification from the Customer before preparing or lodging the customs declaration.

Commercial Description

To enable the Product to be correctly identified and declared, the Customer shall, in addition to the TARIC code, provide a complete, accurate and sufficiently specific commercial description of the Product.

The description shall reflect the actual Product being declared and should contain sufficient information to distinguish the Product from other products with similar or related characteristics.

Where relevant for the identification or classification of the Product, the description should include information such as the product type, composition, grade, relevant specifications or other characteristics.

The Customer shall ensure that the commercial description provided to the Company is consistent with the Product, the TARIC code and the supporting documentation.
