Before you use the code
Check the facts that sit outside the code
The code can be right while what you pay still changes, because of where the goods come from, when they arrive, or extra EU measures.
- The product and its form Check that your product really matches this description, including what it is made of and the form it arrives in.
- Country of origin Trade agreements, sanctions and extra measures can change the treatment of the very same code.
- Current tariff measures Check today's rate, any restrictions or licences, and the quantity customs asks for, with SKAT or TARIC.
