Why attend?

Following the UK/EU Trade and Cooperation Agreement, correct tariff classification is now required for trade with the EU27. This workshop will provide an essential guide to an important area of international trade, and is one of a series aimed at raising awareness of post-Brexit trade issues.

This workshop looks at the background to the tariff, the information in the UK Global Tariff and explains the structure of commodity codes (HS Codes).

The workshop will include the rules relating to tariff classification, using the classification helpline and Binding Tariff Information (BTI) rulings and international trade procedures related to commodity codes.

There will be a brief look at the special provisions linked to commodity codes such as duty percentages, tariff suspension, preference and restrictions. While specific guidance related to certain classes of goods is given, the event is not for specific product classification.
