New European system to store, manage and retrieve Proof of Union Status

Historic - March 1st, 2024

From 1 March 2024, there will be a new European system to store, manage and retrieve ‘Proof of Union Status’ (PoUS). This will replace the T2L certificate and suppliers’ declarations with a digital way of proving the customs status of Union goods.

 

Union goods are those produced in the customs territory of the EU, or imported goods that are in free circulation, i.e. have had all import duties and taxes paid.

Union goods are not subject to EU customs processes. All goods within the customs territory of the Union that are not under customs control are presumed to be Union goods. Goods produced or are in free circulation in Northern Ireland can also benefit from these arrangements.

 

If goods are transported between EU countries and Northern Ireland by a route that deviates outside the customs territory of the EU, including goods moving through Great Britain, the customs status of the Union goods must be proved when the goods return to the customs territory of the EU. This is called ‘Proof of Union Status’ (PoUS).

 

From 1 March 2024, customers will need to use the new PoUS system to upload their data to create an endorsement request. To access PoUS via the EU Portal traders will need to register for Uniform User Management (UUM).
