Simplified procedures

If you are claiming preferential treatment for exports, you may be able to do this without using an EUR1 certificate. You, as an approved exporter may endorse your own export documentation (invoice or other commercial document) to state that the goods qualify for European Union (EU) origin status. This is normally referred to as an invoice declaration.

If you are an approved exporter in a Member State who frequently exports products from another Member State you may use your approval for exports from that other Member State.

You will only need approval to make an invoice declaration if your consignment exceeds €6,000 in value. You do not need approval if the consignment value is less than €6,000.

To apply for approval, you should complete the simplified procedure application form.
