Technical Annex to the system
double checks
1. The export document shall have a dimension of 210 x 297 mm. The paper used shall be white writing paper, sized, not containing wood and weighing less than 25 g / m2. Documents shall be drawn up in English. If they are completed manually, the records shall be made in ink and in printed characters. Those documents may contain additional copies, as such appropriately labelled. If the documents include several copies, the original shall be the top copy only. This copy must be clearly marked as "original 'and other copies as" copy'. Only the original shall be accepted by the competent Community authorities as valid for the control of exports to the Community under the provisions of the double checking system.
2. Each document shall contain a standardised serial number, either printed or not, by which the document can be identified. This number shall be composed of the following elements:
- two letters identifying the exporting country as follows: CZ;
- two letters identifying the Member State for which the customs procedure is foreseen, as follows:
BE= Belgie
DK= Dánsko
DE= Německo
EL= Řecko
ES= Španělsko
FR= Francie
IE= Irsko
IT= Itálie
LU= Lucembursko
NL= Nizozemí
AT= Rakousko
PT= Portugalsko
FI= Finsko
SE= Švédsko
GB= Spojené království;
- a single digit identifying the year corresponding to the last digit of the year in question, e.g. 8 for 1998;
- a two-digit number from 01 to 99 identifying a specific office in the exporting country issuing the documents;
- a five-digit number, in turn from 00001 to 99999, allocated to the Member State to which the customs procedure is foreseen.
3. Export documents shall be valid for six months from their date of issue, but not after 31 December of the year indicated in box 3 of the export document.
4. Since the importer must submit the original of the export document when applying for a surveillance document, export documents should be issued, where possible, on a case-by-case basis and not on total contracts.
5. The Czech Republic does not have to fill in the price information on the export document if there is a real need to protect trade secrets. In such cases, box 9 of the export document shall include the reason for not including the price information and a statement that the price information will be communicated to the competent authorities of the Community upon request.
6. Export documents may be issued after dispatch of the goods to which they relate. In such cases they shall be marked "retroactive '.
7. In the event of theft, loss or damage to an export document, the exporter may request a duplicate made on the basis of the export documents he owns from the competent governmental authority which issued the document. The duplicate of any document issued in this way shall bear the indication "duplicate '. The date of the original export document shall be indicated on the duplicate.
8. The competent authorities of the Community shall immediately be informed of the withdrawal or modification of any export documents already issued and, where relevant, of the reason for such action.
