Requirements for Importer of Record Portugal

Most goods entering and leaving Portugal follow a single trade policy because of the country’s membership in the European Union. An EORI number is required for all imports. The Economic Operators Registration and Identification (EORI) system is a requirement of EU law that all member states must implement. When corresponding electronically with Customs and other government agencies engaged in international commerce, all importers must use a unique EORI reference number. To know all the processes, IOR service providers like One Union Solutions play a crucial role in importing IT, tech, automotive, aviation, and medical equipment to Portugal. 

Before bringing goods into Union customs territory, operators must use an electronic method (Union Customs Code – UCC) to fill out an Entry Summary Declaration (ENS) and submit it to customs in the nation of entry. The Union Customs Code (UCC) is the new framework law on the rules and procedures for businesses in the European Union. It is an integral aspect of customs modernization.
