# The Recovery of Import Duties and Export Duties (Andorra) Regulations 2010, Regulation 17: Adjustment of a claim

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

(1) Where the amount of a claim which is the subject of a request for recovery or for precautionary measures is amended for any reason, the applicant authority shall immediately so inform the Commissioners, and, if necessary, issue a new instrument.
(2) Where the amendment leads to a reduction in the amount of the claim, the Commissioners shall continue the action which they have undertaken with a view to recovery or to the taking of precautionary measures, but that action shall be limited to the amount still outstanding.
(3) If, at the time the Commissioners are informed of the amendment of the amount of the claim, an amount exceeding the amount still outstanding has already been recovered by them, but the transfer procedure referred to in article 18 of Annex I to the Decision has not yet been initiated, they shall repay the amount overpaid to the person entitled thereto.
(4) Where the amendment leads to an increase in the amount of the claim—
(a) The Commissioners shall not be required to take any steps in relation to the amount of the increase unless the applicant authority makes it the subject of an additional request for recovery or for the taking of precautionary measures;
(b) the additional request shall, as far as possible, be dealt with by the Commissioners at the same time as the original request; and
(c) where, in view of the state of progress of the existing recovery procedure, consolidation of the additional request with the original request is not possible, the Commissioners shall be required to comply with the additional request only if it concerns an amount not less than 1500 Euros or the UK sterling equivalent at the time of request.
(5) In order to convert the amended amount of the claim into UK sterling, the applicant authority shall use the exchange rate used in its original request.
