Rejections at lodgement
The most common lodgement issues fall into a short list. Wrong office of departure code. Guarantee reference not authorised for the movement type. Commodity codes that do not match the previous customs entry. Consignor or consignee EORI mismatch.
Fixes are usually quick if the root data is clean.
Post arrival issues
Post arrival problems are the ones that hurt. A T2 movement can be reassessed as T1 at destination if the Union status evidence is missing or thin. That triggers a duty demand months after the move. The T1 and T2 transit document overview sets out exactly which evidence keeps this from happening.
Preventive checks
Run three checks before lodgement every time. Does the customs history support the declared status. Is the guarantee reference valid for the declaration type. Is the Union status evidence attached where T2 is used.
