Import vs Intra-Community Acquisition

In the context of customs, the import procedure applies only to goods originating in third countries and not from within the European Union. If you are “importing” Community products from EU, i.e. goods moved freely within the EU (intra-Community acquisition), the customs procedure is quite simple (issue of Proof of Union Status) or even unnecessary, depending on the means of transport, transit countries and the value of the goods.

You might not need to pay duties and taxes

At BMR Customs Brokers, we are deeply knowledgeable about the EU integrated customs tariff (TARIC) database and all customs procedures. As such, we can correctly classify your goods and recommend the most appropriate procedure (e.g. Procedure 42, Pol. 1026, duty-free) with the aim of zero payment of duties or VAT to the extent permitted by your business activities.
