The Common User Charge (CUC) rates have been confirmed on the Gov.UK website. The government is introducing a user charge on all eligible imports of animal products, plants and plant products entering the UK via the Port of Dover and Eurotunnel in Kent. The introduction of the new SPS import controls aims to protect the UK's food supply chain, food industry, agricultural industry and environment from biohazards. <\/h4><\/div>\n\n

The fees are to fund the infrastructure of government border checkpoints where inspections will be carried out. Rates may vary depending on the type and risk of goods. The maximum fee per Common Health Entry Document (CHED) will be capped at five commodity lines. Digital invoices for the levy will be issued 'in arrears' and details of the management of the levy will be set out in guidance. The impact of the levy on businesses will be subject to regular review and update. Commercial ports may set their own fee structures.<\/p>\n

Below is information on the fee Common User Charge (CUC).
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

From 30 April 2024<\/strong>. in line with the introduction of risk-based identity checks and physical checks at the Border Control Post (BCP) as set out in the BTOM, the Government will administer a common user charge on all eligible SPS imports (from EU and EFTA countries from the rest of the world) entering the UK via the Port of Dover and Eurotunnel in Kent.
\nThe introduction of new sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) controls on imports is fundamental to protecting the UK's food supply chain, food and farming industry and environment from biosecurity threats.<\/p>\n

The levy on eligible goods imported into the UK is necessary to fund the operation of the Government's planned BCP facilities serving the Port of Dover and Eurotunnel to ensure that physical checks on SPS imports can be carried out safely and securely. The common user charge will apply to imports of animal products, plants and plant products entering the UK via the Port of Dover or Eurotunnel that are eligible for inspection at a Government BCP. It will apply to all eligible imports, regardless of whether the imports are selected for physical inspection at the planned government BCP facilities.
\nFrom 30 April 2024, the following rates will be charged for each commodity item on the Common Health Entry Document (CHED):<\/p>\n

Type of goods<\/strong>: Products of animal origin of low risk (POAO)
\nImports<\/strong> - GBP 10 per freight line
\nTransit<\/strong> - GBP 10 per freight line<\/p>\n

Type of goods<\/strong>: POAO medium risk
\nImports<\/strong> - GBP 29 per freight line
\nTransits<\/strong> - GBP 10 per freight line<\/p>\n

Type of goods<\/strong>: High risk POAO
\nImports<\/strong> - GBP 29 per freight line
\nTransits<\/strong> - GBP 10 per freight line<\/p>\n

Type of goods:<\/strong> Low-risk plants and plant products
\nImports<\/strong> - no common user charge
\nTransits<\/strong> - no common user charge<\/p>\n

Type of goods<\/strong>: Plants and plant products of medium risk
\nImports<\/strong> - GBP 29 per freight line
\nTransit<\/strong> - without a common user charge<\/p>\n

Type of goods<\/strong>: High-risk plants and plant products
\nImports<\/strong> - GBP 29 per freight line
\nTransits<\/strong> - no charge for a joint user<\/p>\n

The maximum fee per CHED document will be capped at 5 commodity lines, even if there are more than 5 commodity lines in the CHED document. This means that medium and high risk CHED fees will be capped at \u00a3145. CHED low risk POAO and POAO transits will be capped at \u00a350. To support business readiness, the first digital invoices will be issued in arrears at the end of the year for charges incurred from 30 April 2024. Thereafter, digital invoices will be issued monthly in arrears. Further details of how the fee will be managed, including the process for how and when importers will receive an invoice, and what support is available for businesses to pay the fee, will be set out in guidance before 30 April 2024.
\nThe common user fee will be in addition to any inspection fees applied by the Port Health Authority (for animal products) and\/or the Animal and Plant Health Agency (for plants and plant products). It will be up to commercial (private) ports to set their own fee structure and rates for businesses using their services.
\nThe impact of the common user charge on companies of all sizes will be reviewed monthly and quarterly and rates will be reviewed and updated annually.<\/p>\n
