Some examples of our customs optimization services
Screening of companies engaged in import customs activities
According to the Common Customs Tariff of the EU, imported goods are assigned a product classification. The duty to be paid is determined by the applied customs tariff (lower duty rate = less levied duty).
The origin of the imported goods may result in a lower import duty. In case of production for export, the purchase price of the manufactured product can be reduced. (preferential treatment of origin = less duty imposed).
The customs value is based on the leviable duty. The duty itself is a certain percentage of the customs value (ad valorem duty). This value is increased by certain factors and decreased by others. We will examine these factors (lower customs value = less levied duties).
