Whole provisions yet to be inserted into this Instrument (including any effects on those provisions):
29.—(1) The holder of the common transit procedure is responsible for all of the following—
(a)presentation of the goods intact, and the required information in paragraph 30(1)(c), at the customs office of destination (see paragraph 16(3)) within the time-limit set under paragraph 20(1), and in compliance with the measures taken by HMRC and other customs authorities to ensure their identification;
(b)observance of the customs provisions relating to the procedure;
(c)unless otherwise provided for, provision of a guarantee [F1in accordance with Part 10 of the import duty regulations], as supplemented and modified by sub-paragraph (2) and paragraph 64, in order to ensure payment of the amount of any customs debt which may be incurred in respect of the goods.
[F2(1A) A comprehensive guarantee or guarantee waiver authorised by customs authorities of another common transit state will apply for the purposes of the provision of a guarantee at paragraph 29(1)(c), provided that—
(a)the authorisation has been issued in accordance with Article 55(1)(a) of Appendix 1 to the Convention and has not been annulled or revoked and is not suspended,
(b)the general conditions for authorisation at Article 57(1) of Appendix 1 to the Convention were satisfied at the time the authorisation was granted, and
(c)the comprehensive guarantee or guarantee waiver satisfies the requirements of, and is used by the holder of the common transit procedure in accordance with, Chapter II of Title III of Appendix 1 to the Convention.
(1B) Sub-paragraphs (1A) to (1G) supplement guarantees for the purposes of each common transit procedure.
(1C) Where the common transit procedure has not been discharged, HMRC must, within nine months from the time-limit prescribed under paragraph 20(1) for presentation of the goods at the customs office of destination, notify the guarantor that the common transit procedure has not been discharged.
(1D) Where the common transit procedure has not been discharged and the customs debt [F3excluding duties under sections 30A(3) and 40A TCTA] is incurred in the United Kingdom, HMRC must, within three years from the date of acceptance of the declaration for the common transit procedure, notify the guarantor that the guarantor is or might be required to pay the customs debt [F3excluding duties under sections 30A(3) and 40A TCTA] for which the guarantor is liable in respect of the common transit procedure in question.
(1E) The guarantor is released from the obligations of the guarantee if either notification provided for in sub-paragraph (1C) or (1D) has not been issued to the guarantor before the expiry of the time limit.
(1F) Where either notification has been issued, the guarantor must be informed by HMRC of the recovery of the customs debt or the discharge of the common transit procedure.
(1G) No guarantee is required in any of the following situations—
(a)goods carried by air in accordance with the authorisation in paragraph 18(5),
(b)goods carried by a fixed transport installation as mentioned in paragraph 16(2),
(c)goods carried by air under Part 3.]

(c)have left [F7Great Britain] for a country other than a common transit state.
