Customs Declarations

5 Minutes Take 5 General

The course explores the main topics relating to customs declarations so employees will be confident about why they are required and how to fill them in correctly.

Description

The export and import of goods is a lengthy process. This is usually because goods need to cross borders to reach their destination. In order to arrive safely, customs declarations must be completed so that customs officials know what goods are being shipped, whether they are allowed in the country, and what tax and other tariffs ought to be paid.

Importing and exporting goods can be confusing. Customs declarations typically include an export declaration and a certificate of origin.

Our Customs Declarations short course explores these documents. It covers what they are and why they are needed, and the different kinds of certificates of origin: preferential and non-preferential. It also looks at the consequences if customs declarations are not filled in correctly.
