Anything to Declare?     March 2010 

Greetings!

Welcome to the March edition of "Anything to Declare"?  We aim to keep you abreast of developments in the world of international trade that impact on your business.  In this edition, we are looking at ten ways customs planning can drive down the costs of a business.

A concerted and well-managed focus on customs planning can drive down the costs of a business as well as potentially receiving a cash-flow boost from duty reclaims. 

Many FD's see any investment in customs planning as a discretionary spend that can be put off until a later date.  However, poor or no customs planning will increase costs exponentially and will significantly increase the risk of failing an HMRC audit in the future, with all the potential consequences that that may bring.
