Excise Duty
Support with customs procedures for products subject to excise duty, checking the applicable arrangements, the documents required and any exemptions or suspensions where they are provided for.
Certain products, such as energy products, alcoholic beverages and tobacco products, are subject to excise duty. Their import and movement follow specific rules, depending on whether the duty is paid or suspended.
In these cases we check the arrangements that apply, the documents required, including electronic movement documents where provided for, and any exemptions or suspensions that may apply.
Rates and exemptions are set by the legislation in force and they change. Each case is assessed on the specific product and transaction, without assuming that an exemption will apply.
Send us the details of your case and we will tell you what the procedure involves and what is needed.
What we can take on
- Review the excise arrangements for the product in question
- Check the required documents and authorisations
- Prepare and lodge the related customs documents
- Look into possible exemptions or suspensions, where provided for
What we may need from you
Depending on the goods and the procedure, we may ask for:
- Description and tariff classification of the product
- Quantities, packaging and technical characteristics (e.g. alcoholic strength)
- Sender and consignee details
- Any authorisations or approvals you hold
