the identification system\r\nused for relevant customs procedures\r\nwithin the EU customs territory.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/details>\r\n\r\n\r\n<details>\r\n\r\n<summary>\r\nIs an EORI number required for EU imports?\r\n<\/summary>\r\n\r\n<p>\r\nAn EORI is mandatory\r\nfor relevant economic operators\r\nand other applicable persons\r\nparticipating in EU customs-clearance activities\r\nsuch as import,\r\nexport\r\nand transit procedures.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/details>\r\n\r\n\r\n<details>\r\n\r\n<summary>\r\nDoes every non-EU company automatically need an EORI?\r\n<\/summary>\r\n\r\n<p>\r\nNot simply because\r\nthe company sells goods to Europe.\r\nA non-EU economic operator\r\nrequires an EORI\r\nwhen it performs customs activities\r\nfor which EORI identification is required.\r\nThe actual importer\r\nand declaration structure\r\nshould therefore be confirmed first.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/details>\r\n\r\n\r\n<details>\r\n\r\n<summary>\r\nWhere should an EU-established company obtain an EORI?\r\n<\/summary>\r\n\r\n<p>\r\nAn economic operator\r\nestablished in EU customs territory\r\nnormally receives its EORI\r\nfrom the national customs authority\r\nof the EU member state\r\nwhere it is established.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/details>\r\n\r\n\r\n<details>\r\n\r\n<summary>\r\nWhere should a non-EU company obtain an EORI?\r\n<\/summary>\r\n\r\n<p>\r\nWhere a non-EU economic operator\r\nneeds an EORI\r\nand has no establishment\r\nin EU customs territory,\r\nthe assigning authority is generally\r\nthe member state\r\nwhere it intends to perform\r\nits first customs operation.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/details>\r\n\r\n\r\n<details>\r\n\r\n<summary>\r\nCan one company have several EU EORI numbers?\r\n<\/summary>\r\n\r\n<p>\r\nA person should have\r\nonly one

circumstances.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/details>\r\n\r\n\r\n<details>\r\n\r\n<summary>\r\nIs an EORI number the same as a VAT number?\r\n<\/summary>\r\n\r\n<p>\r\nNo.\r\nEORI is primarily\r\na customs identification number,\r\nwhile VAT registration\r\nrelates to tax obligations.\r\nBoth may be relevant\r\nto the same import transaction,\r\nbut they serve different functions.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/details>\r\n\r\n\r\n<details>\r\n\r\n<summary>\r\nDoes DDP automatically provide an EORI number?\r\n<\/summary>\r\n\r\n<p>\r\nNo.\r\nDDP is a commercial Incoterm.\r\nIt does not automatically\r\ncreate a legal entity,\r\nEORI registration,\r\nVAT registration\r\nor customs representation structure.\r\nThese issues should be confirmed separately.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/details>\r\n\r\n\r\n<details>\r\n\r\n<summary>\r\nDoes using a customs broker mean the importer does not need an EORI?\r\n<\/summary>\r\n\r\n<p>\r\nNot necessarily.\r\nUsing a customs representative\r\ndoes not automatically remove\r\nthe EORI requirement\r\nof the relevant economic operator.\r\nThe declaration\r\nand representation structure\r\nmust be reviewed for the shipment.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/details>\r\n\r\n\r\n<details>\r\n\r\n<summary>\r\nDoes the receiving warehouse use its EORI for my shipment?\r\n<\/summary>\r\n\r\n<p>\r\nNot automatically.\r\nThe warehouse,\r\nbuyer,\r\nimporter,\r\ndeclarant\r\nand customs representative\r\nmay be different entities.\r\nThe correct customs party\r\nshould be identified\r\nbefore shipment.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/details>\r\n\r\n\r\n<details>\r\n\r\n<summary>\r\nIs a UK EORI the same as an EU EORI?\r\n<\/summary>\r\n\r\n<p>\r\nNo.\r\nThe United Kingdom\r\nuses its own customs and EORI structure.\r\nA Great Britain import\r\nshould not automatically be treated\r\nas an EU EORI import.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/details>\r\n\r\n\r\n<details>\r\n\r\n<summary>\r\nHow can an EORI problem delay customs clearance?\r\n<\/summary>\r\n\r\n<p>\r\nAn invalid,\r\nmissing\r\nor incorrectly assigned customs identity\r\ncan prevent the declaration\r\nfrom being processed correctly\r\nand may delay cargo release.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/details>\r\n\r\n\r\n<details>\r\n\r\n<summary>\r\nWhat information should I send BRF before an EU DDP shipment?\r\n<\/summary>\r\n\r\n<p>\r\nSend the origin country,\r\nproduct description,\r\nHS code if available,\r\ncargo value,\r\nweight,\r\nvolume,\r\ndestination country,\r\nfinal postcode,\r\nbuyer information,\r\nintended importer,\r\nexisting EORI
