Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

Intrastat is the system for the production of Community statistics relating to the trading of goods between Member States. The Community establishing Regulation M1 and implementing Regulation M2 are supplemented in national legislation by the Statistics of Trade (Customs and Excise) Regulations 1992 M3 (“the 1992 Regulations”).

These Regulations, which come into force on 1st January 2006, further amend the 1992 Regulations to increase from £221,000 to £225,000 the threshold, expressed in terms of annual value of intra-Community trade, above which a business is required to provide a supplementary declaration for Intrastat. The threshold applies separately for goods dispatched and goods received.

Regulation 3 further amends regulation 3(2) of the 1992 Regulations following the annual review of the threshold in the UK required by Article 10(1) of the establishing Regulation.
