INTRASTAT Declaration (Paper) 

Use

To fulfill EU requirements, companies in the UK have to complete an INTRASTAT declaration and submit it to the UK authorities. The requirements of Intrastat are similar in all EU member states, but the reporting differs. In the UK, you can submit the Intrastat declaration either on paper or on diskette. You use the INTRASTAT: Paper Version for Receipt/Dispatch – Great Britain (RVEXPAIU) report for the paper Intrastat return. Plain paper submissions are no longer allowed but you can use the report to print values on the UK pre-printed form supplied by the UK tax authority, HM Customs & Excise.

Prerequisites

Before starting the report, you must first run the reports on data selection for Purchasing (MM) and Sales and Distribution (SD).

Features

The INTRASTAT: Paper Version for Receipt/Dispatch – Great Britain report prints all items selected by month, year, company code, and procedure using the INTRASTAT form layout required by the statistical authorities. You can also retrieve the data records in aggregated form before you print them. This reduces the volume of data to be declared because document items with identical characteristics are grouped together into one item. The system adds quantities and values of the individual items accordingly. For this format, the system aggregates the data according to the following criteria:

·        Commodity code

·        Country of destination/origin

·        Business transaction type

·        Mode of transport

·        Statistical procedure
