Valuation pre- and post UCC - From First Sale and Royalties to Assists
1.
Baker & McKenzie
LLP is a member firm of Baker & McKenzie International, a Swiss Verein with member law firms around the world. In accordance with the common terminology used in professional service organisations, reference to a "partner" means a person who is a partner, or equivalent, in such a law firm. Similarly, reference to an "office" means an office of any such law firm. © 2015 Baker & McKenzie LLP Jennifer Revis, Of Counsel, Baker & McKenzie LLP (London) Valuation Pre and Post UCC from First Sale and Royalties to Assists 8th Advanced Forum on Customs Compliance: Held in Partnership with HMRC Tuesday 17 November 2015
2.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP Agenda 2 • Earlier sale (also referred to as ‘first sale’) • Royalties and licence fees • Simplifications • Dealing with provisional values • Assists
3.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: Basic Rule | Transaction value (Method 1) 3 The customs value of imported goods shall be the transaction value, that is, the price actually paid or payable for the goods when sold for export to the customs territory of the Community, adjusted, where necessary, in accordance with Articles 32 and 33“ “ – Art. 29(1) CC Transaction value preferred to other methods of valuation where there is a sale and certain requirements are met, including: buyer and seller are not related and, if they are, the transaction value is still acceptable “ “
4.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: Basic rule| What items should be added? Additions to the “price actually paid or payable” (where not already included in the price): (Article 32 CC) 1. commissions and brokerage (exc. buying commission) 2. cost of containers / packing 3. materials, components, tools, dies, engineering, development, plans, sketches etc. (“assists”) – supplied by buyer to seller free of charge or at a reduced cost 4. royalties and licence fees - condition of sale 5. proceeds of subsequent sale accruing to seller 6. delivery costs i.e. transport/insurance/loading and handling charges to the place of introduction into the EU 4
5.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: Basic rule| What items can be left out? Not added to “price actually paid or payable” where shown separately on invoice: (Article 33 CC) 1. transport after arrival at place of introduction in EU 2. charge for construction, maintenance etc. after importation 3. interests under financing arrangement 4. charges for right to reproduce in EU 5. buying commission 6. import duties 5
6.
Earlier sale
7.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: Current legislation | Earlier sale • Where a sale is one of a chain of sales that leads to the introduction of the goods into EU, then the importer may elect to use any sale within that chain as the customs value • There are a number of conditions to fulfil before the earlier sale can be used • Must be a sale of the goods • Sale must be a sale “for export to the EU” (within the meaning of Commentary No. 7 of EU Customs Code Committee) • Importer (declarant) must be able to attest to the value of the earlier sale in the same way that he can attest to the value of the final sale 7
8.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: Current legislation | Earlier sale 8 Both Sale 1 and Sale 2 could constitute a “sale for export” Using Sale 1, the amount used for customs purposes is 25% lower (and excludes the parent’s costs and margin) OEM (China) Parent (US) EU retailer EU distributor Sale 1 75 Sale 2 100 Physical delivery
9.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: UCC (IA) | New definition of transaction value 9 • Definition provided for “transaction value” (Article 128) states: • “The transaction value (…) shall be determined at the time of acceptance of the customs declaration on the basis of the sale occurring immediately before the goods were brought into [the EU]” • Special provision relating to goods sold while in Temporary Storage or while placed under a special procedure other than internal transit, end-use or outward processing
10.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: UCC (IA) | New definition of transaction value 10 • What does “sale occurring immediately before the goods were brought into [the EU]” mean? • No definition of what is meant by “sale” in customs legislation • Will timing of title transfer and/or payment be determinative? • What about the time of when the order is placed? • Does it matter on whose behalf the import declaration is filed? • Commission’s aim is to remove “earlier sale”
11.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: UCC (IA) | Impact of the removal of earlier sale (1) 11 Higher customs value Other possible impact: TP/ TP adjustments; royalties/ licence fees Mexico USA EU USA EU £90 Customs Value £110 £110 Customs Value Before After
12.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: UCC (IA) | Impact of the removal of earlier sale (2) 12 USA German entity UK entity Customs Value Customs Value? Before After EU end Customer USA German entity UK entity EU end Customer • Customs value based on sales between EU entities? (Unifert ECJ case (C- 11/89) – transaction value takes no account of the place of establishment of the parties to the contract of sale) • Consider impact of removals from Temporary Storage and customs procedures
13.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: UCC (IA) | Guidelines; Transitional measures 13 • Wording has been amended but remains unclear. Expect valuation guidelines will be issued providing examples of how these rules are to be applied • Transitional Article (Article 341) applies until 31 December 2017 • No prior agreement from HMRC required • Importer / declarant must be bound by a contract clearly specifying a start date • Contract should make reference to the earlier sales agreement, but need not specify the value of each expected shipment or consignment • Contract must be in place before the entry into force of the Implementing Regulation (20 days after its publication in the Official Journal)
14.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: Independent Manufacturer XYZ Sales Co XYZ Sourcing Co (Agent) Sourcing, Quality Control, etc. Buying Commission (Sale 2 minus Sale 1?) Sale Independent Manufacturer XYZ Sourcing Co importing into the EU* XYZ Sales Co Customer Sale 1 Sale 2 Sale 3 * if not established in the EU, using a customs agent acting as indirect representative Alternative Supply Chains? 14
15.
Royalties / licence
fees
16.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: Current Legislation | Royalties and Licence fees 16 Royalties and licence fees are to be included in the value for customs duty where: • they are a condition of sale of the goods; and • are related to the imported goods If royalty is in respect of right to use a trademark, following conditions must also be met: • The goods must be resold in the same state • The goods are marketed under the trademark affixed • The buyer is not free to obtain the goods from other suppliers unrelated to the seller
17.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: Current Legislation | Royalties and Licence fees (2) 17 Even if sales contract does not explicitly require buyer to make these payments, it can be an implicit condition of sale, if buyer cannot buy goods from seller without this payment Country of residence of recipient of payment is irrelevant Where buyer pays royalties or licence fees to seller of goods imported – highly likely that royalties or licence fees are dutiable
18.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: Current Legislation | Royalties and Licence fees (3) 18 Royalties payable to a third party will be dutiable where the seller or person related to him requires the buyer to make that payment (Article 160 CCIP) ‘Related’ also includes ‘control’, Commentary 11 EU Customs Code Committee Planning options in correlation with ‘earlier sale’
19.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: Current Legislation | Royalties and Licence fees (4) 19 Licensor charges Royalties Export of the manufactured goods to the EU Examples of controls exerted by the Licensor over the Manufacturer: • sourcing of materials and components used in manufacturing process • characteristics of goods and technology used • clients of the Manufacturer for exported goods • selling price of exported goods • Manufacturer’s accounting records
20.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: Current Legislation | Royalties and Earlier Sale 20 • Earlier sale: customs value is Price 1 • Royalties payment is not CoS: seller is not related to XYZ Intellectual Property • Last Sale: customs value is Price 2 • Royalties payment is CoS: seller is related to XYZ Intellectual Property
21.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: UCC (IA) | Royalties / Licence Fees (1) 21 • Royalties are deemed to be related to the goods when rights transferred are embodied in the goods • Method of calculation is generally not a factor. If the royalty is based on the price of the imported goods, it can be assumed that it is related to the goods (same as current legislation) • Condition of sale has been redefined – broader (see next slide). Introduction of a catch-up all provision (condition (c)) – more closely aligned with WCO Commentary 25.1)

& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: UCC (IA) | Royalties / Licence Fees (2) 22 When the buyer pays royalties or licence fees to a third party, the conditions provided for in Article 157 (2) shall not be considered as met unless the seller or a person related to him requires the buyer to make that payment Royalties and licence fees are considered to be paid as a condition of sale for the imported goods when any of the following conditions is met: a. the seller or a person related to the seller requires the buyer to make this payment b. the payment by the buyer is made to satisfy an obligation of the seller, in accordance with contractual obligations c. the goods cannot be sold to, or purchased by, the buyer without payment of the royalties or license fees to a licensor Currently (Art. 160 IPCC): New wording (Art. 136 IA):

& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: UCC (IA) | Royalties / Licence Fees (3) • Broader definition of “condition of sale” will bring more agreements into the duty calculations, particularly situations where payment is made to a third party licensor • Under current rules, royalties/ licence fees would only be dutiable if “control” by licensor over seller could be demonstrated e.g. quality control is not enough to show control • No longer a requirement under proposed legislation – royalties/ licence fees dutiable irrespective of “control” so long as goods cannot be sold or purchased without payment of royalties/ licence fees – SIGNIFICANT CHANGE WHICH WILL HAVE MAJOR IMPACT 23 Anticipated Impact:

& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: UCC (IA) | Royalties / Licence Fees (4) 24 • No separate conditions for trademark royalties so if they are a condition of sale and relate to the goods, they are dutiable • Guidance received so far from HMRC is that if royalty / licence fee is due, it is up to the importer to prove that this should not be included in the customs value • Expect: • Difficulties in challenging that a royalty/ licence fee is not a “condition of sale” • Think about apportionment – does the royalty/ licence fee only relate to imported goods or does it also relate to services? • Can royalty/ licence fee be calculated at the time of import? If not, alter this? • Communication needed within company to identify dutiable charges Anticipated Impact:

Simplifications
26.
© 2015 Baker
& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: Pre and post UCC | Simplifications 26 • The customs authorities may authorise that certain amounts be determined on the basis of specific criteria, where they are not quantifiable on the date on which the customs declaration is accepted • Fixed adjustment rate agreed with Customs - applied to each import to reflect the potential uplift in the customs value due to the later payment made for the goods. No need for later reconciliation Simplification (Art. 73 UCC)
27.

& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: Pre and post UCC | Simplifications (2) 27 • Pre UCC – only available for additions / deductions under Art. 32 and 33 of the Customs Code (e.g. royalties and licence fees) • Post UCC – available for transaction value as well (e.g. provisional price)
28.

& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: UCC | Conditions for obtaining simplification 28 Art. 71 (DA) • application of the ‘Simplified declaration’ procedure would, in the circumstances, represent disproportioned administrative costs • the customs value determined, will not significantly differ from that determined in the absence of an authorisation • applicant meets compliance criteria for AEOC; acceptable accounting system; and suitable administrative organisation and internal controls

& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: Pre and post UCC | How to deal with provisional value at time of import 30 1. Simplification 2. Incomplete declaration / simplified declaration – time limits? 3. Prior agreement with Customs – declare entries as final at the time of import and reconcile at a later date • Currently available in the UK • No clear legal basis for this • Unclear whether applicant will need to meet similar criteria for this post UCC as for simplifications

If so, what is impact of retrospective TP adjustments? HealthCo Limited’s margin is raised and it receives a refund of EUR 20,000 • Duty payable is 10% of 80,000 = EUR 8,000 • Potential overpayment claim • HMRC likely to require a line-by-line adjustment illustration and evidence of transfer pricing agreements in force at time of import HealthCo Limited’s margin is lowered and it pays an additional EUR 20,000 to HC Inc. • Duty payable is 10% of 120,000 = EUR 12,000 • Underpayment of EUR 2,000 in customs duty plus additional VAT NB: Import VAT consequences? 32

& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: How to reconcile customs value Apportionment can get very complicated, but possible savings opportunities... Apportionment • What types of costs are dutiable? • Exclude costs incurred in EU • Only costs relating to goods imported into the EU are dutiable • Apportionment is permitted based on the generally accepted accounting principles of the importing country (e.g. quantity imported vs. worldwide production) 35 Where importer is part of group of companies, not unusual for parent company to seek to recover R&D costs through “cost sharing” arrangement

& McKenzie LLP DM Ref: Example 2 | Assists (cont’d) • How do we go about including the R&D costs/machinery in the customs valuation of an individual product imported by UK subsidiary? • What benefit does UK subsidiary obtain for its R&D payment? Remember that not all of the elements are necessarily dutiable (e.g. marketing costs) • US parent co. is also supplying machinery (assists) to India manufacturing co. – assists used in the production of the imported goods and so value needs to be attributed to them for customs purposes 39
