(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the International Transport of Goods under Cover of TIR Carnets (Fees) Regulations 1988 ("the 1988 Regulations"). The 1988 Regulations prescribe the fees payable in connection with the approval of a road vehicle design-type, and with the issue of a certificate of approval for a road vehicle, in pursuance of Annex 3 to the Customs Convention on the International Transport of Goods under Cover of TIR Carnets of 14 November 1975. "TIR" is the acronym for "Transport Internationaux Routiers".
Regulation 2 makes amendments to the prescribed fees which are set out in the Table below. The percentage increases since the fees were last fixed are shown in brackets.
| Nature of service | Existing fee (£) | Substituted fee (£) |
|---|---|---|
| Inspection of a vehicle design type in connection with the grant of TIR design-type approval where the inspection is of a design-type which is a variation of a design-type for which a TIR design-type approval has been granted | 92 | 97 (5.4%) |
| Inspection of a TIR vehicle design-type in connection with the grant of TIR design-type approval in any other case | 563 | 591 (5%) |
| Inspection of a vehicle in connection with the issue of a TIR vehicle approval certificate where the inspection is carried out following refusal of such a certificate for the vehicle | 61 | 64 (4.9%) |
| Inspection of a vehicle in connection with the issue of a TIR vehicle approval certificate in any other case | 92 | 97 (5.4%) |
The fee for the issue of a TIR vehicle approval certificate for a vehicle which is of a design-type for which TIR design-type approval has been granted and the fee for the issue of a duplicate of such certificate remains unchanged at £13 (regulation 4 of the 1988 Regulations).
