TEMPORARY ADMISSION

Temporary Admission allows goods under certain circumstances and criteria to be imported temporarily (usually a maximum period of 2 years) for use be it for a show, exhibition or to conduct operations and testing. 

There are two main types of inward processing available in the UK: 

• Simplified Temporary Admission - available for imports of goods and equipment on an occasional basis 
• Full Temporary Admission - available for imports of goods and equipment on a regular basis 

Temporary Admission is commonly used for goods which are not owned by the UK importer, and which are not eligible for Inward Processing as the goods themselves are not undergoing any change (although they may be used to change other goods or be used in manufacturing). 

We provide support and guidance on the various approval options available, and also help you to adapt your systems and internal processes in preparation for managing the approval. 

We are able to provide  assistance by drafting and submitting your application using the HMRC online form, questionnaire and supporting documented procedures.
