(a)for the purposes of, or otherwise in connection with, import duty; and
(b)in relation to—

(ii)the verification of a Customs declaration(8); or
(iii)the release or discharge of goods to and from a Customs procedure(9).
140.—(1) In a case where a fee is authorised to be charged, the amount of the fee which is authorised is limited to the costs incurred, or to be incurred, by HMRC in exercising the function or power in relation to which a fee may be charged.

(4) HMRC may require a fee, or part of it, to be paid before making the attendance requested.
(5) Where—
