EUR1 DECLARATIONS UPDATED HMRC have now updated their guidance for the declarations to be made on page 4 of an EUR1 application as follows: (a) Exporters who have manufactured/produced the exported goods ‘The goods shown on the movement certificate were **manufactured/produced by the exporter and are classified under (4 figure tariff heading). They satisfy the appropriate qualifying process in the preferential agreement **Delete where appropriate (bi) Exporters who have bought in goods for export in the same state (goods manufactured/produced in the UK) ‘The goods shown on the movement certificate were **manufactured/produced in the UK and are classified under (4 figure tariff heading).
