Customs and Trade Compliance in Guernsey
All imports and exports into Guernsey are regulated by Guernsey Customs and Excise, operating under local customs law rather than EU Customs Code rules.
Key compliance requirements include:
• Formal customs declaration
• Correct HS code classification
• Declared customs value
• Import duty assessment
• Country-of-origin disclosure where applicable
As the Importer of Record, Uproot Technologies assumes full legal responsibility for customs accuracy, fiscal compliance, and regulatory alignment, removing exposure for overseas manufacturers, technology vendors, and service providers.
