  • Customs declaration for a total of 10G of packaged optical components

    Customs declaration for a total of 10G of packaged optical components

    The Customs Value Declaration must be drawn up conforming to form DV 1, whose specimen is laid down in Annex 8 to Regulation (EU) 2016/341 (CELEX 32016R0341) known as UCC Transitional Delegated Act. This form must be presented with the Single Administrative Document (SAD). A customs declaration is an official document that gives details of goods that are being imported or exported into or out of EU customs territory. It is the legal act whereby an operator indicates their intention to place those goods under an EU customs procedure, as described in the Union customs. Die Zollverwaltung bietet Ihnen die Möglichkeit, eine Internet-Zollanmeldung (IZA) zu erstellen und diese online abzugeben. There are no costs for you for using the Internet. This article summarizes the process of HS code classification and customs declaration for complete sets of goods.
