Authoring and contributions by Paolo Dragone

The Italian supreme court has highlighted two concepts related to the responsibility of the importer in the event that the certificate of origin is proven to be false and the sanctions applicable to the importer.

Italy: The importer is almost always responsible in case of an untrue certificate of origin

As part of the initiatives adopted by the Customs and Monopolies Agency (ADM) to support economic operators, the possibility of streamlining the process relating to reintroduction activities for the release for free circulation of previously exported goods was recognised. This relief is granted if the goods are reintroduced in the state in which they were exported.

Italy: Simplified procedure for relief from the import duties of reimported goods

In commercial practise the ex-works state to the sale of goods intended for export as a delivery term agreed between the seller and the buyer is frequently applied; this condition provides that the seller is only required to make the goods available to the buyer in its own company and it is the buyer who takes care of the transport of the same outside the EU territory.

Italy: Simplifications for authorisation to the “approved place for export”
