Returns from the UK

No additional special instructions.

Returns from outside the UK (including EU from 01/01/2021)

Every consignment that enters the UK will need to be accompanied by a commercial invoice. Please click here for a template that you can use if you do not already have one. An extremely important piece of information that needs to be displayed on the invoice is the following:

-IPR (INWARD PROCESSING RELIEF) – Invoice wording required for correct UK temporary import.

“TEMPORARY EXPORT – GOODS RETURNING TO MANUFACTURER FOR REPAIR AND RETURN. VALUE FOR CUSTOMS AND INSURANCE PURPOSES ONLY. NOT FOR RE-SALE, DO NOT PAY THIS INVOICE.

COURIER INFORMATION – PLEASE IMPORT GOODS INTO THE UK UNDER IPR TERMS – CPC CODE – 5100000.
XTA ELECTRONICS LTD trading as MC2 AUDIO

IPR authorisation number – IP/0923/678/28 | CDS reference number – GBIPO58942230400020220712151751”

Please note this IPR authorisation number has changed as of February 2023 so update any template documents you may have or you may be liable for charges we incur from incorrect importation.

Please use commodity code 8518400090 for amplifiers, and 8543700600 for anything else (Ti1048, BoBs).

PLEASE NOTE: The value that you use on your invoice is what the shipment will be insured for, so please make sure you use the correct value for replacement.  Do not undervalue the goods.  We will return the goods with a “re-export invoice” of the same value that you used when sending to us, as the temporary import/re-export values need to match up.

Please make sure that you familiarise yourself with your local customs procedure/process for sending repairs to other countries (non-EU).  You will need to do a “temporary export for repair” often known as “outward processing relief” or similar.  This will ensure that when the goods are re-imported back to you, there are no DUTY/VAT/TAXES due to be paid.  Although the process in many countries is similar, it is not identical.  The above invoice wording is relevant for the UK import – you may need additional text/wording to engage a temporary export in your territory.  Our advise is to speak to your forwarder/courier or a customs broker/agent for more detailed information.  If this process is not handled correctly there may be charges due (VAT/DUTY) when you get the goods back (re-import).

In addition to the above please make sure that you notify us in advance when you are sending a unit for repair from outside the EU. We need to know the shipping method (courier name) and the tracking number (if applicable) so we can pre-notify the shipping company of the temporary import instructions.

If you are sending goods back via a national postal service instead of using a courier, please make sure that you complete a CN23 customs declaration form (in addition to a shipping invoice) that CLEARLY states that the goods are for “TEMPORARY IMPORT INTO UK UNDER IPR TERMS: CPC CODE – 5100000”.  This needs to be stuck to the outside of the parcel and easily viewable.

Download a part completed CN23 form here.

Please make sure that you complete sections: “From” & 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.  Please also include a commercial invoice on the outside of the carton, and sign section 15.   Any questions please contact us.

Failure to adhere to the above instructions could result in costs from customs/shipping companies being incurred by MC2, which may then be passed on to YOU, the customer.

It is also extremely important for you the customer, to make sure that you are aware of the process in your country for temporary exporting and re-importing of goods for repair, as the rules/procedures/CPC codes will more than likely differ to that of the UK’s.
