Important Post Brexit Changes

From 1st January 2021, the UK left the EU.
Following this, a number of important changes are now applicable to semen exports and imports between the UK and the EU.

Import Tax

From 1st January 2021, VAT is no longer applicable to semen export fees when shipping to the EU.
As such, the quote above does not include VAT and you will not pay VAT to Stallions AI Services/ Cryogenetics Ltd when paying your semen shipping invoice.
Instead, import tax is payable by the importing party upon arrival of the goods in the destination EU country.
The import tax fee will be requested from the courier transporting the shipment.
The import tax rate applied will depend upon the destination country’s tax rate for frozen equine semen and the stated goods value of the semen.
The goods value will be listed in accordance with the semen purchase price.

A copy of the semen purchase invoice will therefore be requested from the stallion owner/ original semen owner as part of the export application process.
It is important that the importing party is aware of the tax rate and tax fee ahead of the semen entering the destination country.
The shipment will not be released by the courier until the tax is paid.

Stallion AI Services / Cryogenetics Ltd accept no liability for issues relating to the import tax.
It is the responsibility of the semen purchaser to determine the tax rate and final tax fee that will be applied ahead of the goods being sent.

Import Agent / CHED P Generation

Post Brexit, a CHED P is now needed for semen to enter the EU.
The CHED-P is issued by the operators responsible for the consignment when in the EU – i.e. the mare owner / person we are shipping to.
The purpose of the CHED is to pre-notify the competent authorities of the border control post (BCP) of the arrival of the consignment (Part I),
for the competent authorities to record the outcome of official controls performed and any decisions taken on that basis (Part II),
for the competent authorities to include information on follow-up measures taken on the consignment after a decision has been taken (Part III).

The CHED P must be generated in advance of the shipment leaving the semen shipping centre
i.e. the CHED P must be in place by at least the day before the shipment leaves the shipping centre.

You will need to find an import agent to help with the clearance of the semen, please contact us if you are struggling as we do work with a few agents.

Full details on the CHED PP and how to generate can be found here -

CHED P generation.

You must liaise with us as the semen shipping centre to co-ordinate the generation of the CHED P in line with the generation of the health paper and ahead of the semen shipping.

Pre-Clearance of Health Papers

Based on progress with current exports and the advice of DEFRA, we are now asking for the export health papers to be pre-cleared by the border control post ahead of the shipment leaving.
This is to ensure that they are happy with the documents before the shipment leaves to reduce the chance of delays in clearance through customs.
This pre-clearance will need to be co-ordinated by the mare owner and Import agent alongside the generation of the CHED P.

Additional Information Needed from The Semen Purchaser
In addition to the full shipping address, we now also require the following information from the semen purchaser in order to facilitate your frozen semen export;

• Name, address and full contact details of the importing party
• EORI number of the importing party
• Approval number of the final destination address if applicable.

This information must be provided in full before we can start your semen export.

We will also be requesting a copy of the semen purchase invoice between yourself and the original semen owner / stallion owner.
This information is used to value the goods on the shipment commercial invoice and is therefore used as the basis for the import tax invoice payable in the destination country.

Importing Party

In accordance with the import tax described above, it is now important for semen purchasers to consider who they list as the importing party.
The importing party will be detailed on the semen health paper and commercial invoice.
Whoever is chosen for this listing will be the person/ party that are contacted for the import tax payment.

It is therefore the responsibility of the semen purchaser to ensure they have selected the correct importing party and that the importing party is fully aware that they will be contacted to pay for the import tax and that the goods will not be released until full payment is made.

The importing party can be the semen purchaser themselves, a semen agent or the final destination shipping address if this is prior agreed and authorised with the semen agent or final destination shipping address.

EORI Registered Importing Party

To facilitate transit through customs, the importing party should be EORI registered (Economic Operators Registration and Identification number).

Using an importing party that is not EORI registered is likely to result in the shipment experiencing significant delays in transit and processing through customs.

It is therefore strongly recommended that the chosen importing party is EORI registered to assist with faster transit of the frozen semen shipment.

Stallion AI Services / Cryogenetics Ltd cannot accept any liability for any delays or shipping errors/ failures relating to the importing party EORI registration.

It is the responsibility of the semen purchaser to ensure the importing party is correctly EORI registered and therefore able to accept the shipment via new systems post BREXIT.
