Defra have been working together with the Department for Agriculture, Food and the Marine (DAFM) in Ireland to identify commonly occurring issues with Private Attestations.
As a result, they have now issued tips for traders to help ensure that consignments of composite products using the Private Attestation can be processed at Irish Border Control Posts (BCP) as quickly as possible.
These are mainly for EU importers to consider but will also be relevant to GB based exporters providing detail for the Private Attestation to their EU counterparts.
The tips are available on Defra’s showcase site but please let us know should you have any problems accessing the information.
Note: If you are sending composite products to other EU Member States, or to Northern Ireland, you may want to check directly with the relevant BCP/Point of Entry whether they have specific requirements or tips of their own for the completion and submission of the Private Attestation.
