NO. Many products are already exempt from customs duties under the EU/UK common external tariff.

Therefore, before claiming a tariff preference under the Agreement, which involves certain formalities and complying with special conditions, you should first check that the product is not exempt from customs duty under the common external tariff.

If your product is already exempt from duties under this system, it is not necessary to request the benefit of a tariff preference.

The rules of preferential origin allow a good to benefit from a reduction or exemption from customs duties, as part of a preferential relationship concluded with the European Union (EU).

The preferential origin of a good can only be determined within the framework of a preferential relationship concluded with the EU. In this case, the framework is the Trade and Cooperation Agreement with the United Kingdom

For more details on determining the preferential origin on a general level, you can consult the guide published by the DGDDI (French General Directorate for Customs):

For parcels with a value of more than £873, Parcelforce will charge the recipient a customs clearance fee of £25. In all cases, the Brexit surcharge of €4.40 per parcel (not directly related to the customs clearance operation) applies.
