In the second meeting of the year with the General Council of Customs Agents with the Department, it was reported on the creation of a working committee by the British Border Delivery Group made up of customs authorities and representatives of the private sector of both countries, as well as the different incidents facing the sector were discussed.
– In the first place, a high percentage of the arrival of goods is taking place through the 42 00 regime, so as not to have to pass certain controls in Spain, due to the problems generated in our customs.
In this sense, in line with the report of the European Court of Auditors, the Department has been reminded the need to work with a common framework across the EU, to be in a true equality of conditions. It will work on joint initiatives to try to achieve the objective.
– The use of the figure of indirect export through France is generating many problems: the percentage of shipments in which no export is recorded is extremely high. According to the French authorities, the DAE does not appear at the Customs office of exit.
This general fact is a huge problem, since it is necessary to go to the alternative test to demonstrate the export.
French authorities advise using transit (export followed by transit), although it seems clear that trucks are being let out without completing all the paperwork, so problems could continue to exist.
– The United Kingdom is taking a long time to finalize the transits, so no guarantees are released.
– It has been proposed to the Department Take advantage of the yellow circuit in exports, when a certificate from a border inspection service is missing, so that the export is more agile, than when an orange circuit is granted.
