Article 346 of the French Customs Code

Any challenge to the claim must be addressed to the authority that issued the assessment notice within three years of its notification, without prejudice to the time limits for remission of duties set out in Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 of 12 October 1992 establishing the Community Customs Code.

The Regional Director of Customs will rule on the dispute within six months of receipt. In the case of an application for remission based on the Community Customs Code and falling within the remit of the Commission of the European Communities, this period begins on the day the customs administration is notified of the Commission’s decision.

Article 346

Toute contestation de la créance doit être adressée à l’autorité qui a émis l’avis de mise en recouvrement dans les trois ans qui suivent sa notification, sans préjudice des délais prévus, en matière de remise des droits, par le règlement (CEE) n° 2913/92 du Conseil, du 12 octobre 1992, établissant le code des douanes communautaire.

Le directeur régional des douanes statue sur la contestation dans un délai de six mois à compter de sa réception. En cas d’introduction d’une demande de remise fondée sur le code des douanes communautaire et qui entre dans les compétences de la Commission des Communautés européennes, ce délai part du jour de la notification à l’administration des douanes de la décision de celle-ci.
