CCPG22100 | Classifying the category of contravention: introduction

Customs law imposes a wide range of obligations on those moving goods into, out of and moving through the EU.

When you identify a contravention of those obligations you should consider which of the following categories that contravention falls into:

• poor compliance, see CCPG22200

• serious errors, see CCPG22300

• deficiencies in systems, records, security of premises etc, see CCPG22400, and

• failure to produce records or information, see CCPG22500.

The link for each of the categories above will show a page that explains what the category means and what action we might take to address a contravention that falls into that category.

For more detailed operational guidance on those actions, see CCPG24000 - CCPG28000.
