T2Ms

The stamping of T2Ms has been centralised at Central Processing Unit (CPU), Salford.

The NCH no longer deals with these.

Transit, TIR carnets and other movement simplification

Transit is not normally be dealt with by the NCH. It is the declarants’ responsibility to ensure that level 1 manifests, NCTS documents and TIR carnets are presented to BF officers based at the frontier.

Unaccompanied / accompanied (temporary admission) baggage

No formal customs declaration is required to claim relief for personal effects temporary imported by non EC resident travellers less than 10,000 Euro in value except for firearms and ammunition. At inventory linked locations email / fax C21 (CPC 00 00 040) to the NCH for clearance. For firearms and ammunition regardless of value and for other eligible goods over 10,000 Euro in value a C88 declaration using CPC 53 00 D04 (or 53 00 003 for VAT only goods) is required (Special Procedure guidance Temporary Admissions, see also Notice 3 Section 4 and Notice 3001 Section 3).

Wine import entries

HMRC have agreed revised procedures for fully paid and Common Customs Tariff (CCT) duty paid wine imports with the Wine Standards Board (WSB).

The original VI1 or original copy 1 of the form is retained by the declarant for 5 years or forwarded, unendorsed to the warehouse for retention as appropriate. Procedures for consignments of fully bonded wine remain unchanged. These should continue to be selected for automatic clearance into warehouse. HMRC will not require sight of the entry, VI documents or other supporting paperwork.
