EU Clinical Materials Valuation and HTS Coding

EU Clinical material imports are taxed differently depending on the EU country’s regulations.

Trial sponsors looking to import clinical materials into the EU need to declare accurate clinical material valuations (CMV) to avoid fixed penalties, the destruction of material, and shipment delays.

  • VAT implications in the EU and the UK
  • The delays, material destruction, and fixed penalty notices that can result from inaccurate CMVs
