Warehousing, Inward Processing, Temporary Admission, Free Zone Processes

Warehousing, inward processing, temporary admission and free zone processes are commonly referred as procedures with economic impact. They are very similar to the import procedure. The biggest difference is that the duties and taxes are not collected when the goods are put on the procedure, but are postponed to some later time. The procedures with economic impact usually involves the following:

• presentation of a guarantee by trader
• customs supervision during the procedure
• time limits for the procedure
• customs issued permits
• regular reporting by the trader. 

Procedures with economic impact require usually two customs declarations - one that starts the procedure and second one that stops it (e.g. a declaration for temporary admission and a declaration for re-export). Those two declarations must be correlated with each other and checked for consistency and possible violations.

CuE helps the customs authorities and traders to implement the procedures with economic impact:

• lodgment of customs declarations
• validating of the lodged declarations, including checking for permits and validating the declarations against previous declarations
• handling of simplified permit requests
• automatic and optional manual risk analysis of the customs declarations
• assignment of controls based on risk analysis results
• managing the status of declarations based on the results of controls
• calculation of the taxes and duties and checking of non-tariff measures
• guarantee management for postponed taxes
• releasing goods for procedure with economic impact
• lodgment of amendment and cancellation requests by traders
• amendment and cancellation of the declarations
• management of the procedure time limits
• handling of simplified and supplementary declarations
• handling of notifications and local clearance
