5. Before Brexit
 Currently, an ATA Carnet isn’t needed to avoid import
duty and tax on temporary imports within the EU.
 Since 1992 the EU “single market” allowed the free
movement of goods and services within the European
Union, as if it was a single customs territory.
 The EU Customs Union is a component of the single
market.
 Under these rules' goods travel freely throughout the EU
and are not subject to tariffs, customs barriers or delays.
ABO London October 2019

6. A Brexit Key Issue
 Will the UK leave the EU Customs Union
on October 31, 2019?
 No one knows, therefore; we actively monitor
Brexit effects on temporary exports.
 Recommend preparation for any outcome.
 ATA Carnet benefits: allows instruments and
equipment to exit and re-enter the UK without filing a
customs entry and paying duty and tax.
 Serves as documentation for transiting a country.
ABO London October 2019

affordable means to get instruments and equipment
