The invoices listed in Annex I have been declared invalid, therefore a customs debt has been incurred. The duties due as a consequence shall be collected:
-
where customs authorities have indications that the price presented on an undertaking invoice issued by one of the companies doesn’t correspond to the price paid, and therefore those companies may have violated the undertaking - customs authorities may request the Commission to disclose the undertaking and other information in order to verify the applicable Minimum Import Price (MIP) on the day the undertaking invoice was issued
-
where verification reveals that the price paid is lower than the MIP
-
where verification reveals that discounts and rebates haven’t been included in the commercial invoice
The information provided may only be used for the enforcement of duties due.
Customs authorities may provide the debtor with this information for the sole purpose of safeguarding their rights of defence.
Under no circumstances may the information be disclosed to third parties.
Customs Handling of Import and Export Freight (CHIEF) has been updated. The printed tariff will be updated in the November amendment.
