Eur1 certificate and invoice statement
With an Eur1 certificate or an invoice statement you can claim preferential duties.
No duties or reduced duties are applied to the import of the goods.

 

An Eur1 certificate is a document which declares that the goods originated from an EU country and can be requested at your local Chamber of Commerce. Wim Bosman can not supply you with an Eur1 certificate!
 
For shipments with a total customs value of less than 6.000 Euro you don't need to request an Eur1 certificate. An invoice statement is sufficient. The exporter can issue an invoice statement. With this the exporter declares that the goods originated from an EU-country.
If your goods originated from outside the EU, than you don't need an invoice statement.
 
The following statements must be place don the pro-forma invoice:

 

Invoice statement English:
"The exporter of the products covered by this document declares that, except where otherwise clearly indicated, these products are of …. preferential origin."
 
For Switzerland and Liechtenstein the invoice statement must be issued in German:
"Der Ausführer der Waren, auf die sich dieses Handelspapier bezieht, erklärt dass diese Waren, soweit nicht anders angegeben, präferenzbegünstigte Europäische Gemeinschafts Ursprungswaren sind."
 
The invoice statement is completed with  place of issue, date, signature and the full name of the authorized person. In case the exporter has a permit, then also shipments with a value of more than 6000 euro, an invoice statement can be used. The authorisation number must then be included on the invoice.

 

Please note: the signature must be original and must be written with a blue pen/ink. A copy or stamp is not valid.

 

Certificate of origin
In case the goods originate from outside the EU, then a certificate of origin may be needed.

 

Authorisation
The Wim Bosman customs department clears every shipment using a "Dom Proc export" (= customs permit for simplified procedures).

 

This export is then processed in the transport document, the so called T2 document. This export will be made for all shipments which have a destination outside the EU (e.g. Norway, Switzerland, CEE-countries, China…).
 
As of the 6th April 2008 this way of making an export is no longer allowed anymore. Wim Bosman can only make an electronic export and this is only possible if we have received an authorisation from you, our customer. Wim Bosman will remain doing the declaration but you, as exporter / owner remain responsible for content ( invoice / VAT zero tariff). In short, nothing mayor changes, no extra costs will be charged for the new rules. We only need a onetime authorisation in order to be allowed to continue making  the export for you.

 

Packing list
This document contains details about the content of the shipment. A packing list is in case of export to customs countries not always obligatory, but it could simplify the customs procedures. Therefore  always check beforehand if a packing list is required or not.
