TPD10070 - Electronic Removal: Budget day
Under regulation 9(6), of the âTobacco Products Regulations 2001â, any removals to home use after 11.59 on the day of an increase in the duty (usually Budget Day) are deemed to have taken place after the duty increase comes into effect. This regulation applies to all registered premises whether or not they operate âelectronic removalâ but is especially relevant in the case of âelectronic removalâ where very large quantities can be removed to home-use in a matter of seconds. Given that âelectronic removalâ must be an irreversible transaction, any erroneous or accidental removal cannot be corrected. You should ensure that the trader understands that any request to reverse an âelectronic removalâ will not be considered.
