Overview Resources

The Union Customs Code sets out that after the release of goods for free circulation the customs declaration may be amended within three years.

May we amend any box of the customs declaration, for instance, change the identity of the declarant and the type of representation in the Box 14?

Let’s find out the answer by overviewing a practical situation! The situation is based on the judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union in case C-97/19 (please find the case in the resources part).

Resources are available after purchase.

Anyone who either advises importers or directly pursues what they believe have been incorrect trade decisions made by U.S. Customs and Protection (CBP) knows that the processes can not only be frustrating but also prohibitively expensive.

Customs brokers are an important part of the customs ecosystem. Both parties - traders and customs - can benefit greatly from working with these professional intermediaries. Customs brokers take … on the complex tasks related to customs clearance, protect and serve the interests of the parties involved while balancing their different needs (e.g. fast delivery vs. thorough control) and save them a lot of time so they can focus on their core activities.
