Tariff classification, valuation and origin of goods are the three pillars of correct calculation of import duties and taxes, and the application of non-tariff measures. In this course, you will learn the basic principles and how they work in practice in the EU-UK trade. 

This training is a part of the Customs compliance training for EU and UK businesses - a very popular one-day crash course on EU and UK customs!

Content

EU's perspective

  • Tariff classification. You will learn about what classification is, why commodity codes are important and how to allocate commodity codes to the goods you import/export. 
  • Customs valuation. You will learn about what customs valuation is, why it matters as well as how to determine the customs valuation of the goods you import/export. 
  • Non-preferential and preferential origin. You will learn about what origin is, why it matters as well as how to determine the preferential as well as the non-preferential origin of the goods you import/export. 

UK's perspective

  • Classification, valuation and origin from the UK’s perspective. This part starts with a quick recap on the Brexit timeline. It then summarizes the key differences in classification, valuation and origin rules between the EU and the UK.

Should the UK rejoin PEM?
12-01-2025

Whenever the topic of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA) review comes up, the Pan-European Mediterranean (PEM) origin cumulation zone is one of the topics mentioned as potentially in scope. Recently, several reports and organizations have included rejoining PEM as one of the recommendations for the new Government. Rejoining PEM is indeed one of the steps that could improve market access for products from all industries that could be done within the current format of the TCA. It could also be done without changing the essential character of the relationships, i.e. one based on a simple and fairly basic trade agreement.

Pan-European-Mediterranean (PEM) Zone
12-01-2025

The Pan-European-Mediterranean Zone was implemented in 2005. The idea was to create a cumulation zone between Europe and its neighbours and to encourage intra-regional integration by promoting trade and cooperation. The PEM Convention allows for the cumulation of origin between different countries within the zone. Cumulation of origin is one of the ways to allow for greater flexibility when it comes to using raw and semi-manufactured materials in the production process. It allows a member of a trade agreement to use originating products from other members.

From textiles to motor vehicles: a sectoral study of rules of origin complexity
29-12-2024

In their recent report, the World Customs Organization (WCO) proposed a new methodology for classifying and comparing product-specific rules of origin between agreements. This new conceptual tool: the "drafting complexity index" (DCI) was used to provide insights into rules for automotive and textile sectors.

What is new in the Combined Nomenclature 2025?
22-12-2024

Editor's note (by Enrika Naujoke). Want to have fun? Try explaining various aspects of product classification to programmers who are to integrate it into software. For example, the latest update regarding tomatoes with “greatest diameter of less than 47 mm”. Yes, the tariff depends on classification based on “greatest of less” wording! Let us know how you get on. We hope that reading the Combined Nomenclature updates from the perspective of this exercise will be interesting and engaging.
