TPD1010 - Introduction: Who should read this guidance
This guidance has been written primarily for assurance officers and their managers concerned with manufacturers of tobacco products. This guidance assumes that you have read the Guided Learning Unit on Tobacco Products Duty (TPD) and are familiar with audit techniques.
Officers dealing with:
- exports of tobacco products,
- drawback claims; or
- excise warehouses, Registered Consigneeâs, Temporary Registered Consigneeâs or other forms of importation;
will be interested in section TPD12000 âFiscal marksâ.
Import or Assurance officers, who may be concerned with the examination of tobacco products, will find advice on examination, weighing and sampling in section TPD19000- âImported tobacco products: advice for Officers dealing with imported tobacco products, including specific advice on fiscal marksâ.
The section entitled âNational Advice Service (NAS)â offers help to Advice Service staff in answering relatively simple enquiries from potential importers.
