Updated Version of Guidelines for Economic Operators Registration and Identification number (EORI)
An updated version of the guidelines for EORI numbers is now available. An economic operator established in the EU needs to have an EORI number. Economic operators established outside the EU have to be assigned an EORI number if they lodge a customs declaration, an Entry or an Exit Summary Declaration.
Full details of the updated guidance is available from http://ec.europa.eu/ecip/documents/who_is/taxud1633_2008_rev2_en.pdf
