UK Import Tariff Change - PSA

[Lareon]

Please be aware all, after a conversation with HMRC tariff control the previous tariff code 9706.0000.00 has been superseded.

 

9706.0000.00 is now not a valid code but has two subcodes.

 

the new codes are as follows 

 

9706.1000.00     antiques over 250 years old

9706.9000.00    other

obviously please do your own checking and research as finding concrete information here is a bit of a minefield

 

if you click date of trade on the link i provided and put december last year the code is valid, if you do feb this month you see the code isn't, it changed on the 1st of january 2022

Just paste « customs code for antiques more than 100 years old » on your browser and you’ll have all your answers on this touchy subject.

 

BTW, a tariff code for antiques over 250 years old is a non sense.

[Gakusee]

As mentioned in the separate thread, it should be 9706.1000.00 / VAT footnote 03001.

And, Jean the tariff for over 250 years old (9706.10xxxx) is a sub tariff of the one for over 100 years old (9706.xxxxxx).

If its an antique and 100  years old then why are they confusing things by adding another code for even older antiques?

 

weird

[Brian]

Maybe instead of zero vat/taxes.... earlier than 250 years old, they start to give you money back?

I wish, maybe go into a basket and off to the "best make an effort with this one" room.
