ANNEX BSupplementary provisions

ANNEX B COMMON DATA REQUIREMENTS FOR DECLARATIONS, NOTIFICATIONS AND PROOF OF THE CUSTOMS STATUS OF UNION GOODS TITLE I Data requirements CHAPTER 1 Introductory notes to the data requirements table (1) The declaration messages contain a number of data elements only some of which will be used, depending on the customs procedure(s) in question. (2) The data elements which may be provided for each procedure are set out in the data requirements table. The specific provisions concerning each data element as they are described in Title II apply without prejudice to the status of the data elements as defined in the data requirements table. The provisions that apply to all situations where the data element concerned is requested are included in the heading ‘All relevant data requirements table columns used’. In addition, the provisions that apply to specific table columns are included in specific sections that refer precisely to those columns. Both sets of provisions need to be combined to reflect the situation of each table column. (3) The ‘A’, ‘B’ or ‘C’ symbols listed in Chapter 2, section 3 below have no bearing on the fact that certain data is collected only where circumstances warrant it. For example, the supplementary units (status ‘A’) will only be collected where required by the TARIC. (4) The ‘A’, ‘B’ or ‘C’ symbols defined in Chapter 2, section 3 may be complemented by conditions or clarifications listed in the footnotes attached to the data requirements table of Chapter 3, section 1 below. (5) If the Member State of acceptance of the customs declaration allows, a Customs declaration (columns series B and H) or a simplified declaration (columns series C and I) can include items of goods which are subject to different procedure codes, providing that these procedure codes all use the same dataset as defined in chapter 3, section 1 and belong to the same column of the matrix as defined in Chapter 2. However, this possibility shall not be used for customs declarations lodged in the context of centralised clearance pursuant to Article 179 of the Code. (6) Without affecting in any way the obligations to provide data according to this Annex and without prejudice to Article 15 of the Code, the content of the data provided to customs for a given requirement will be based on the information as it is known by the economic operator that provides it at the time it is provided to Customs. (7) The exit or entry summary declaration that must be lodged for goods leaving or entering the customs territory of the Union contains the information detailed in columns A1 and A2 and F1a to F5 of the data requirement table of Chapter 3, Section 1 below, for each of the situations or modes of transport concerned. (8) The use within this annex of the words entry and exit summary declarations refer respectively to the entry and exit summary declarations provided for under Articles 5(9) and 5(10) of the Code. (9) Columns A2, F3a and F3b of the data requirements Table of Chapter 3, Section 1 below cover the required data which is provided to Customs authorities primarily for safety and security risk-analysis purposes prior to departure, arrival or loading of express consignments. (10) For the purposes of this Annex, an express consignment means an individual item carried via an integrated service of expedited/time-definite collection, transport, customs clearance and delivery of parcels whilst tracking the location of, and maintaining control over such items throughout the supply of the service. (11) Where column F5 of the data requirements Table of Chapter 3, Section 1 below applies to road transport, it also covers cases of multimodal transport, unless otherwise provided in Title II. (12) The simplified declarations referred to in Article 166 contain the information detailed in columns C1 and I1. (13) The reduced list of data elements provided for procedures in columns C1 and I1 does not limit or influence the requirements set out for the procedures in the other columns of the data requirements table, notably in respect of the information to be provided in supplementary declarations. (14) The formats, codes and, if applicable, the structure of the data requirements described in this Annex are specified in the Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447 which is adopted pursuant to Article 8(1)(a) of the Code. (15) Member States shall notify the Commission of the list of particulars they require for each of the procedures referred to in this Annex. The Commission shall publish the list of those particulars.

[19] This information is not to be provided when customs administrations calculate duties on behalf of economic operators on the basis of information elsewhere in the declaration. [20] Except where it is essential for the correct determination of the customs value, the Member State of acceptance of the declaration shall waive the obligation to provide this information, — where the customs value of the imported goods in a consignment does not exceed EUR 20 000 provided that they do not constitute split or multiple consignments from the same consignor to the same consignee, or — where the importation is of a non-commercial nature or — in case of continuing traffic in goods supplied by the same seller to the same buyer under the same commercial conditions. [21] This information shall only be provided if the customs duty is calculated in accordance with Article 86(3) of the Code.

[29] This information is required where a preferential treatment is applied using the appropriate code in D.E. 4/17 Preference. [30] This information shall only be used in case of centralised clearance. [31] This information shall only be used in case the declaration for temporary storage or the customs declaration to place the goods under a special procedure other than transit is lodged at a customs office different to the supervising customs office as indicated in the respective authorisation. [32] This information shall only be required in case of commercial transactions involving at least two Member States.

[45] In the following cases, Member States shall waive the obligation to enter this information on a transit declaration lodged at the office of departure in relation with the means of transport on which the goods are directly loaded: — where the logistical pattern does not allow this data element to be provided and the holder of the transit procedure has the AEOC status and — where the relevant information may be traced where needed by the customs authorities via the records of the holder of the transit procedure.
