Standard Unit Quantity Code compliance: waivers permitted for incompatible UQCs to prevent clearance delays and mis-declarations. Compliance with the Standard Unit Quantity Code (UQC) is mandatory for Bills of Entry and Shipping Bills; declarations must include comprehensive descriptions to improve EDI data quality. Where statutory UQC is incompatible with trade practice or in MRP-based assessments, Group AC/DCs (non-RMS) and concerned ACs/DCs (RMS docks) are authorised to waive the prescribed UQC, while RMS docks must return bills to the assessment group if a UQC change is required, and trade must correctly declare UQC and full descriptions initially.
