HMRC have shared that the amendments are as follows:
In Receive goods into and remove goods from an excise warehouse (Excise Notice 197) – GOV.UK, sections 2.1, 5.2.1, 7.2.3, 12.1, 12.3, 12.9, 13.2, 13.6 and 14.10 have been amended.
For How to register and use the Excise Movement and Control System – GOV.UK, the fourth paragraph down headed “How to use EMCS” has been amended.
And in Submit an electronic administrative document using the Excise Movement Control System – GOV.UK, the final few paragraphs immediately following the “Table heading descriptions” section have also seen amendment.
Based on feedback from our HMRC Communications and guidance team, some minor changes have been made to draft versions, but these do not substantially change what was shared with you in November.
We also attach a document previously shared which summarises the changes made. Click HERE to view this.
