Obtaining an EORI Number - Law firm Finance Business Service: offshore registration, tax planning, legal services

Conducting business in the European Union (EU) requires compliance with certain customs procedures, one of which is obtaining an EORI (Economic Operators Registration and Identification) number. This unique identifier is essential for all economic operators engaged in import and export operations within the EU.

What is an EORI Number?

An EORI number is a unique identification code assigned by the customs authorities of EU member states to individuals and businesses engaged in international trade. It is used to identify companies when interacting with customs authorities and is mandatory for customs declarations, transit operations, and other procedures related to the movement of goods across EU borders.

Who Needs an EORI Number?

An EORI number is required for:
– Companies and sole proprietors registered in the EU who import or export goods.
– Companies and individuals not residing in the EU but planning to conduct customs operations within the Union.

Even if you are not registered in the EU but plan to carry out your first customs operation in one of the member states, you must obtain an EORI number in that country.

How to Obtain an EORI Number?

The process of obtaining an EORI number varies depending on the country where you plan to conduct customs operations. However, the general steps include:

1. Determine the Competent Authority: Contact the customs authority in the EU country where the first customs operation will take place.
2. Collect Required Documents: Typically, company registration documents, proof of address, and representative identification details are needed.
3. Submit an Application: Fill out the appropriate form and submit it along with the documents to the customs authority.
4. Receive the Number: After processing your application, a unique EORI number will be assigned to you.

The time required to obtain an EORI number may vary depending on the country and the completeness of the submitted documents.
