Customs tariffing with AWOR Customs
The quality of master data with regard to customs tariffing and classification very often leaves much to be desired. The importance and presence of correct customs tariffing and classification are often only realised in the aftermath of a negative customs inspection.
Various causes:
- Incorrect data from suppliers is simply input without checking
- High variety of items
- No acute necessity (hidden errors have not yet been detected)
- Lack of professional competence (pure customs tariff know-how is not sufficient)
The risks of incorrect customs tariff numbers can be significant:
- Post-clearance recovery of import duties
- Penalties or criminal proceedings
- Withdrawal of customs procedures
- Reputational damage
