Unit quantity code requirement: declare UQC in standard measurable units to ensure usable customs import data. Importers and Customs House Agents must file Bills of Entry with UQC in Kg or the standard units as prescribed against the relevant tariff headings in the Customs Tariff; use of non-measurable descriptors (cartons, boxes, rolls without dimensions, running lengths without width) produces poor-quality data in the National Import Database and should be avoided, and any problems with filing UQC codes in Kg/standard units should be reported to the Additional Commissioner of Customs in charge of EDI systems.
