Upcoming News: HMRC to Cancel EORI Numbers
HMRC to Automatically Cancel EORI Numbers
Important News for Businesses Trading with the EU
His Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC) has announced that it will automatically cancel Economic Operators Registration and Identification (EORI) numbers at the same time as VAT cancellations. This change will impact businesses that trade with the European Union (EU) and will take effect immediately.
An EORI number is essential for businesses that import or export goods from the EU. It is used to identify a business to customs authorities and is required for customs declarations. Without an EORI number, businesses will not be able to move goods across the EU border.
HMRC has emphasized that businesses need to be aware of this change and ensure that they have a valid EORI number before trading with the EU. Businesses that have their VAT number canceled should apply for a new EORI number as soon as possible to avoid any disruption to their trade.
For more information and to apply for an EORI number, businesses can visit the HMRC website or contact HMRC directly.
