What are EUR1 certificates?

An EUR1, also known as a ‘movement certificate’, enables importers in certain countries to import goods at a reduced or nil rate of import duty under trade agreements between the UK and partner countries.

Chamber International is authorised to issue EUR1 certificates on behalf of H.M Revenue & Customs and we are here to help you. No matter where you are in the UK we have a dedicated service that can walk you through the EUR1 process, to take away the confusion so you can get on with what matters to you.

Much of what you need to know is wrapped up in H.M Revenue & Customs information booklets and busy exporters don't always have time to read this detail. If it's the same for you, contact our EUR1 specialist Sam Paley for help.

1. You will need the Harmonised System (HS) code for your products. 
2. Use your HS code to check the rules of origin that apply to your products. 
3. Telephone Chamber International on +44 (0)845 034 7200 to order the forms.
