Tariff System

Arctic Tariff, produced by the Arctic Group, is a comprehensive web-based tariff system for customs administration authorities in European Union (EU) countries. The product suite confers significant benefits and cost savings on Customs Administrations; solutions are applicable to standard customs administration functions, such as:

• Publication of tariff data
• Integration of tariff information into electronic customs and trade systems
• Administration and maintenance of accurate and up-to-date tariff data
• Automatic validation of commodity codes and tariff measures
• Automation of duty calculations
• Automatic import and export of tariff information into and out of other customs and trade systems

For most Customs Administrations, electronic tariff solutions form part of the following projects:

• Upgrade and modernisation of tariff management capabilities
• Electronic customs systems
• Customs Website developments
• Web-based information portals
• Electronic customs and trade declarations
• Single Window developments that require validation of tariff data prior to the processing of customs declarations

The Arctic Tariff product and its modules cover the full range of European Union member state requirements. Capabilities include anti-dumping measures, tariff quotas and surveillances measures, the nomenclature of goods and related regulations, national fiscal measures and non-fiscal national measures. Arctic Tariff is also able to automatically import all TARIC information, integrate quota and statistical functionality, and accommodate any additional member state-specific tariff measures.
