EORI number

An EORI number identifies an economic operator for EU customs operations. Its purpose differs from a VAT identification number, and it is not a product identifier.[1]

Before the first relevant declaration, check that the correct business uses a valid number. Do not casually reuse another group company's reference. The declaration identity must match the entity actually undertaking the customs operation.
