(c) goods produced or manufactured by another person may be taken into account only if
identical or similar goods produced or manufactured by the same person as the goods to be valued are

.
(6) The Ministry shall issue a Decree setting forth the procedure to be employed by customs
authorities to determine the customs value as per §§ 66 to 76.
§ 66
(1) The customs value shall constitute the basis for assessing the customs duty. The customs
value shall be rounded up to the nearest higher Czech Crown.
(2) The customs value of imported goods shall be the transaction value, i.e. the price actually
paid or payable for the goods sold for importation into the Czech Republic and adjusted in accordance
with § 75 and 76, provided that:
(a) there are no restrictions imposed upon the disposal or use of the goods by the buyer other than
those:

Page 4
(b) the sale or price of the goods in question are not subject to any further conditions or
considerations the value of which cannot be determined with respect to the goods to be valued,

or indirectly accrued to the seller,
the buyer and the seller are not associated, or if they are, the transaction value is acceptable for
customs purposes under the provisions of paragraphs 3 to 6.
(3) The fact that the buyer and the seller are associated shall not in itself be deemed to
constitute a sufficient reason for regarding the transaction value as unacceptable. In such cases,
customs authorities shall examine the circumstances of the sale, and unless the association hasaffected the price, the transaction value shall be accepted. If the customs authorities have reasons to
believe that the association has affected the price, they shall communicate such reasons to the
importer and give him/her a reasonable period of time to make comments thereon. Upon request of
the importer, the reasons shall be communicated in writing.
(4) In a sale between associated persons , the transaction value shall be accepted and the
goods valued in accordance with paragraph 1, provided that the importer is able to prove that such
value is very close to any of the values listed un der letters (a) to (c) and dating to the same time or
about the same time, namely:
(a) the transaction value of sales between unassociated buyers and sellers of identical or similar
goods exported to the Czech Republic,
(b) the customs value of identical or similar goods determined pursuant to § 70,
(c) the customs value of identical or similar goods determined pursuant to § 71.

levels, quantity levels, items listed in § 75, and cost s incurred by the seller in sales in which the seller
and the buyer are not associated, as well as costs not incurred by the seller in sales in which the seller
and the buyer are associated, shall be taken into account.

and solely for the purpose of comparison. Substitute value shall not be determined pursuant to the
provisions of paragraphs 4 and 5.
§ 67
(1) The term price actually paid or payable for goods shall denote the total payment for
imported goods made or to be made by the buyer to the seller in favour of the latter. It shall include all
payments made or to be made as a prerequisite of the sale of the imported goods in question by the
seller to the buyer or by the buyer to a third party in order to meet the liability toward the seller. The
payment need not be effected by a money transfer. Instead, Letters of Credit or other negotiable
instruments can be employed, and the payment may be made directly or indirectly.
(2) Any activities undertaken by the buyer on his or her own account, including marketing
activities to promote sales of goods, but other than those falling under the provisions of § 75, shall notbe deemed to be an indirect payment to the sell er; such activities shall comprise all activities
connected with the promotion and resale of, and warranties pertaining to, the goods in question. These
expenses shall not be added to the price actually paid or payable.G/VAL/N/1/CZE/3

§ 68
(1) If the customs value of imported goods cannot be determined as set forth in § 66, such

(2) If it is impossible to ascertain the sale referred to in paragraph 1 , the transaction value of
goods sold under different commercial terms and conditions or in another quantity shall be employed,
which shall be further adjusted to reflect the differences in commercial terms and conditions or
quantity, provided that such adjustments can be made on the basis of presented evidence that clearly
shows that the adjustments are reasonable and appropriate, no matter whether they result in anincrease or reduction of the transaction value.
(3) If the transaction value determined in acco rdance with paragraph 1 includes the costs and
expenditures set forth in § 75, paragraph 1, letters (e) and (f), then such value shall be adjusted to
reflect and take into account major differences between such costs and expenditures for the importedgoods and identical goods, which arise from different distances and methods of transport used.
(4) If the procedure pursuant to paragraph 1  results in more than one transaction value of the
goods in question, the lowest of these values shall be used as the customs value of the imported
goods.
§ 69
(1) If the customs value of imported goods cannot be determined pursuant to §§ 66 and 68,

commercial terms and conditions and essentially in the same quantity as the goods being valued.

information which may be required to determin e the customs value in accordance with another
provision of the Act, the form and manner of which shall be set by the customs office.
4. By presenting the Value Declaration to the customs office in charge pursuant to Paragraph 1
above, the declarant shall be responsible for:
(a) the accuracy and completeness of data presented in the Value Declaration;
(b) the authenticity of documents presented as a proof positive of the above data;
(c) submitting any additional information or documents that may be needed to determine the
customs value of the goods in question.
5. Value Declaration forms published or approved prior to the present Decree taking effect may
be used until June 30, 1999.
Article 22
1. The Value Declaration shall not be submitted if(a) the customs value of goods imported in a single consignment does not exceed CZK 175,000.-,
providing that such a single consignment is not a part of a split consignment or one ofmultiple consignments sent by the same sender to the same consignee,
(b) the imported goods in question are of a non-commercial nature,

Explanatory Notes to the Customs Value Data Declaration
Ad Article 66, Paragraph 2, of the Act
The term "price actually paid or payable" denotes the price of imported goods. Therefore, transfers of
dividends or other payments from the buyer to the seller, which do not bear any relation to the
imported goods, do not constitute any part of the customs value.
Ad Article 66, Paragraphs 2 and 3, of the Act
Such restrictions are represented, for example, by cases in which the buyer demands that the seller
refrain from re-selling or displaying cars before a specific date, which is the beginning of the model
year.
Ad Article 66, Paragraph 2, Letter (b), of the Act
The following cases can be used as examples:
(a) the price of imported goods set by the seller is subject to a condition that the buyer will also
buy a certain quantity of other goods;
(b) the price of imported goods depends on the price(s) for which the buyer of the imported goods
sells other goods to the seller of the imported goods;
(c) the price is based on the manner of payment which does not bear any relation whatsoever to
the imported goods: for example, the imported goods may be semifinished products which the
seller supplied for a given number of finished products. Nevertheless, conditions or theperformance or fulfilment of the contract, which are connected with the manufacture or
manner of sales, shall not constitute a reason for regarding the transaction value as
unacceptable. For example, if the buyer arranges technical work or plans for the seller in the
country of importation shall not constitute a reason for regarding the transaction value as
unacceptable for the purpose of Article 66, Paragraph 2.
Ad Article 66, Paragraph 3, of the Act
1. Paragraphs 3 and 4 presume the use of various tools to determine whether the transaction
value is acceptable.
2. Paragraph 3 stipulates that, insofar as cases when the buyer and the seller are associated are
concerned, all circumstances of the sale shall be examined and, unless the association has affected the
price, the transaction value shall be accepted as the customs value. It is not necessary to examine
circumstances of the transaction every time the buyer and the seller are associated. Such an
examination is required only in cases where there are doubts regarding the acceptability of the price.
If the customs office does not have any doubts as to the acceptability of the price, the latter should beaccepted without the importer having to provide any additional information. For example, the customs
office could have examined the association or obtained detailed information on the buyer and the
seller earlier, and could have used that information or examination to make sure that the association
indeed did not affect the price.
3. If the customs office cannot accept the transaction value without a further examination, it
should give the importer a chance to submit additional detailed information which the customs office
needs to examine circumstances of the sale. To this end, the customs office should be prepared to
accept relevant aspects of the transaction, including the manner in which the buyer and the sellerG/VAL/N/1/CZE/3
Page 16
organize and arrange their business relations and the procedure used to determine the price in
question, to be able to decide whether the associatio n has indeed affected the price. If it finds out that
the buyer and the seller, in spite of being associated as per provisions of Article 65, Paragraph 3, buy
and sell from/to each other as if they were not associated, such a finding is a proof positive of the
price not having been affected by the association. For example, if the price was set in a mannerconsistent with customary price-setting practices in the relevant industry, or in the manner which the
seller customarily uses with respect to non-associated buyers, this fact shall be deemed a proof
positive of the price not having been affected by the association. If the price was sufficient to cover all
costs and to achieve a level of profit corresponding with the overall profit level of the company during
a representative period of time (e.g. the fiscal year) with respect to sales of goods of the same
category or type, this fact shall also be deemed a proof positive of the price not having been affected
by the association.
4. Paragraph 4 gives the importer an opportunity to prove that the transaction value is very close
to a "criterion" price previously accepted by the customs office, and is therefore acceptable in
accordance with Article 66 of the Act. If the transaction value is in line with any of the criteria laid
down in Paragraph 4, it is not necessary to undertake the examination referred to in Paragraph 3 andParagraph 4, Letter (b), of the Act. If the customs office has obtained enough information to make
sure, without any further detailed examination, that some of the criteria listed in Paragraph 4 have
been met, there is no reason for the customs office to demand a proof that the criterion can be met
from the importer.
Ad Article 66, Paragraph 4, of the Act
To determine whether a value is "very close" to another, a certain number of factors have to be taken
into account. These include, in particular, the nature of imported goods, nature of the industry in
question, period in which the goods are imported, and whether the difference, if any, is commerciallysignificant. As these factors may vary from case to case, there is no single standard, e.g. a fixed
percentage, that can be applied. For example, when determining whether the transaction value is very
close to the value of any of the "criteria" laid down in Paragraph 4 of Article 66, a small difference for
one kind of goods may be unacceptable while a big one for another may be acceptable.
Ad Article 67, Paragraph 1, of the Act
The term "indirect payment" shall denote, for example,  a full or partial settlement of a debt by the
buyer.
Ad Articles 68 and 69 of the Act
1. When implementing these provisions, the customs office shall, whenever possible, refer to
sales of identical goods effected under identical commercial terms and conditions and essentially in
the same quantity as the goods being valued. If no such transaction exists, the customs office can refer
to a sale of identical goods taking place in one of the situations listed below:
(a) a sale under identical commercial terms and conditions, but in a different quantity,
(b) a sale under different commercial terms and conditions, but essentially in the same quantity,
(c) a sale under different commercial terms and conditions and in a different quantity.
2. If a sale in one of the situations listed above is found, adjustments shall be made to take into
account:
(a) the quantity factor only,
(b) the commercial factor only,G/VAL/N/1/CZE/3
Page 17
(c) both factors.
3. The expression "or" allows for referring to sales and making necessary adjustments in any of
the three situations described above.
4. Any adjustment necessitated by different commercial terms and conditions or a different
quantity, no matter whether it results in an increase or a decrease of the value, shall be subject to
being based on evidence which obviously ensures that it is reasonable and accurate, e.g. on valid price
lists containing prices applying to different commercial terms and conditions and different quantities.
If the imported goods the value of which is to be de termined consist, for example, of a consignment of
10 units, and the only identical goods for which a transaction value is available is represented by a
consignment consisting, say, of 500 units, and if it has been concluded that the seller providesquantity discounts, the necessary adjustment may be made using the price list and the price for 10
units. There is no need for a sale involving 10 units to actually take place, if it is determined, on the
basis of other sales, that the price list in question is genuine and true. However, in the absence of an
objective criterion of this type, the procedure set forth in Articles 68 and 69 is not suitable for the
determination of the customs value.
Ad Article 71 of the Act
1. This provision stipulates that the customs value is generally determined on the basis of
information easily available in the importing country. However, for the purpose of determining thecalculated value, it may be necessary to examine manufacturing costs of the goods the value of which
is to be determined or other information which may have to be obtained outside the importing
country. In addition, in most the manufacturer does not fall under the jurisdiction of authorities of the
country of import. Generally speaking, the use of the calculated value method shall be limited to cases
in which the buyer and the seller are associated and the seller is willing to communicate informationneeded to determine such costs to authorities of the country of import and, if necessary, give them an
opportunity to verify such information later.
2. The "cost or value" referred to in Article 71, Paragraph 1, Letter (a) of the Act shall be
determined on the basis of data pertaining to the manufacture of the goods to be valued, which will be
submitted by the manufacturer or on his behalf. It shall be based on accounting ledgers of the
manufacturers, if these are compatible with generally accepted accounting practices applied in thecountry of manufacture.
3. The "profit mark-up and general expenses" referred to in Article 71, Paragraph 1, Letter (b) of
the Act shall be determined on the basis of data provided by the manufacturer or on his behalf, unless
his figures are incompatible with those usually associated with sales of goods of the same category orkind as the goods the value of which is to be determined, and effected in the country of export for the
purpose of exporting them to the importing country.
4. It is understood that no cost or value of th e elements referred to in this paragraph shall be
taken into account twice when determining the calculated value.
5. In this respect, it must be noted that the "profit mark-up and general expenses" must be taken
as a whole. Thus, it follows that the manufacturers profit and general expenses taken as a whole can
be compatible with amounts usually associated with sales of goods of the same category or kind, even
though the profit mark-up may be extraordinarily low and the general expenses high in the case athand. Such a situation may occur, for instance, if a product is being launched in the country of import,
and the manufacturer puts up with a low or even zero margin to make up for high general expenses of
introduction. If the manufacturer can prove that he is satisfied with a low profit mark-up when selling
imported goods under special business terms and conditions, it is necessary to take into account hisG/VAL/N/1/CZE/3
Page 18
actual profit, provided that he can furnish sound business reasons for being satisfied with the low
margin and his pricing policy is consistent with the pricing policy generally employed in the given
industry. This may happen, for example, in cases when manufacturers have been forced to reduce
their prices because of an unexpected decline of demand, or if they sell a particular product to be able
to offer a comprehensive range of goods in the country of import, and put up with a low profit marginin order to retain their competitive ability. If the profit mark-up and general expenses figures provided
by the manufacturer are incompatible with those usually associated with sales of goods of the same
category or kind as the goods the value of which is to be determined, and effected in the country of
export for the purpose of exporting them to the importing country, the amount of the profit mark-up
and general expenses may be based on information other than those provided by the manufacturer or
on his behalf.
6. The determination whether particular goods are "of the same category or kind" shall be based
on a case-by-case approach taking into account all circumstances of the case at hand. When
determining the usual profit mark-up and general expenses pursuant to Article 71, Paragraph 1, Letter
(a) of the Act, it is necessary to examine expor t sales to the country of import for the narrowest
possible group or series of goods including the goods the value of which is to be determined, forwhich the needed information can be obtained. For the purpose of Article 71, Paragraph 1, Letter (b)
of the Act, the goods "of the same category or kind" must come from the same country as the goods
the value of which is to be determined.
Ad Article 72 of the Act
1. Customs values determined in accordance with Article 72 of the Act should be based on
previously determined customs values to the maximum extent possible.
2. The valuation methods used to determine th e customs value in accordance with Article 72
should be the methods outlined in Articles 66 to 71 of the Act, but there must be a certain degree of
reasonable flexibility when implementing them, in accordance with the objectives and provisions laid
down in Article 66, Paragraph 2, of the Act.
3. Here are some examples of what should be perceived as "the reasonable flexibility":(a) Identical goods - the requirement that the identical goods should be exported at the same time
or at about the same time as the goods the value of which is to be determined may be
interpreted flexibly; the customs valuation may be based on identical goods manufactured in a
country other than the country exporting the goods the value of which is to be determined;
customs values of identical imported goods which have already been determined in
accordance with Articles 70 and 71 of the Act may also be used;
(b) Similar goods - the requirement that the similar goods should be exported at the same time or
at about the same time as the goods the value of which is to be determined may be interpretedflexibly; the customs valuation may be based on similar goods manufactured in a country
other than the country exporting the goods the value of which is to be determined; customs
values of similar imported goods which have already been determined in accordance withArticles 70 and 71 of the Act may also be used;
(c) Deriving method - the requirement that the goods be sold in the "as imported" condition,
which is laid down in Article 70, Paragraph 2, of the Act, may be interpreted flexibly; thesame applies to the 90-day term.
Ad Article 75, Paragraph 1, Letter (b), Indent 2, of the Act
1. Insofar as the addition of the elements listed in Article 75, Paragraph 1, Letter (b), of the Act
to the imported goods is concerned, there are two fact ors to be taken into account, namely the value ofG/VAL/N/1/CZE/3
Page 19
the element in question and the manner in which this value is factored into the value of the imported
goods. The addition of the elements should be done in reasonable manner, commensurate to the
circumstances, and in compliance with generally accepted accounting principles.
2. Insofar as the value of the element is concerned, if the importer acquires the element from a
non-associated seller for a price, the price shall be  the value of the element. If the element was made
by the importer or a person/party associated with him, its value shall be equal to its manufacturing
costs. If the element has been previously used by the importer, no matter whether it was acquired or
manufactured by that importer or not, the initial acquisition or manufacturing costs will have to be
reduced in proportion to its use in order to obtain its value.
3. As soon as the element value has been determined, it must be added/factored into the
imported goods. There are various options available. For instance, the value may be added to the first
consignment, if the importer wishes to pay the duty from the entire value at once. Another example:
the importer may require that the value be added to the number of goods units produced until the time
of the first consignment. Yet another example: the importer may require that the value be added to the
whole planned output or batch, if there exist contracts or fixed obligations with respect to it. Themethod of addition shall be based on documents provided by the importer.
4. To illustrate what has been outlined above, there may be an importer who provides the
manufacturer a mould or a die for the purpose of producing goods that are to be imported, and signs a
contract for 10,000 units with him. At the time the first consignment of 1,000 units arrives, themanufacturer has already produced 4,000 units. The importer may ask the customs office to add the
mould/die value to 1,000 units, 4,000 units, or 10,000 units.
Ad Article 75, Paragraph 1, Letter (b), Indent 4, of the Act
1. The values to be added in recognition of the elements listed in Article 75, Paragraph 1,
Letter (b), Indent 4, of the Act should be based on objective and quantifiable information. To facilitate
the task of determining the values to be added/factored in both for the customs office and the
importer, easy-to-use data from business documents of the buyer should be used as much as possible.
2. Insofar as elements provided by the buyer, which he bought or hired, are concerned, the value
to be added is the purchase cost or the rent. As to public domain information, only copying costs willbe added.
3. The values to be added can be calculated relatively easily, on the basis of the structure of the
enterprise in question, competence of its management, and accounting procedures it uses.
4. For example, a company importing various products from various countries may keep the
accounting of its design centre outside the country of import so that costs which are to be added to
each product are clearly and accurately shown. In such cases, the adjustment may be made directly in
accordance with Article 75 of the Act.
5. In another case, the company may add the costs of running its design centre outside the
country of import to its general expenses without distributing them among its products. In such cases,
the adjustment with respect to imported goods and made in accordance with Article 75 of the Act may
be made by adding the design centre costs to the whole production which makes use of its services,
and adding the prorated amount thereof (based on the number of imported units) to the value of theimported goods.
6. Naturally, changes in the circumstances mentioned above will require that different factors be
taken into account when determining the appropriate method of addition.G/VAL/N/1/CZE/3
Page 20
7. In the event the preparation of an element involves several countries and a longer time period,
the adjustment should be limited to the value actually added to the element in question outside the
country of import.
Ad Article 75, Paragraph 1, Letter (c), of the Act
Patent and licence fees referred to in Article 75, Paragraph 1, Letter (c), of the Act may include, inter
alia, payments in recognition of patents, manufacturing or trade marks, and copyrights. However,
insofar as the determination of the customs value is concerned, fees for the right to reproduce
imported goods in the country of import shall not be added to the price actually paid or payable.
Ad Article 75, Paragraph 3, of the Act
If there is non objective and quantifiable information regarding the additions to be added pursuant to
Article 75 of the Act, Article 66 cannot be used to determine the transaction value. An example of
such a situation may be a licence fee based on the selling price of a litre of a specific product in thecountry of import, which was imported as dry substance and converted into a solution in the country
of import. If the licence fee is based partly on imported goods and partly on additional elements which
bear no relation whatsoever to the imported goods (for example, if imported goods are mixed with
domestic substances and can no longer be identified separately as a result, or if licence fees cannot be
distinguished from special financial arrangements between the buyer and the seller), it would not beappropriate to add the element corresponding to the licence fee. However, if the licence fee is based
solely on imported goods and is easily quantifiable, then the element can be added to the price
actually paid or payable.
Ad Article 65, Paragraph 3, of the Act
For the purpose of the provision, a person/entity shall be deemed to control another person/entity if it
can, de facto  or de jure , force or direct the latter.
Ad Article 70, Paragraph 1, Letter (a), of the Act
1.  The "profit mark-up and general expenses" must be taken as a whole. The figure for the
purpose of the reductions provided for in Article 70, Paragraph 1, Letter (a), of the Act should be
based on data provided by the manufacturer or on his behalf, unless his figures are incompatible with
those usually associated with sales of imported goods of the same category or kind in the importing
country. If the figures provided by the manufacturer are incompatible with the latter figures, the
amount of the profit mark-up and general expenses may be based on information other than thoseprovided by the manufacturer or on his behalf.
2. When determining commissions, usual profit mark-ups and general expenses, the issue of
whether particular goods are "of the same category or kind" shall be solved on a case-by-case basis
taking into account all circumstances of the case at hand. It is necessary to examine sales in thecountry of import for the narrowest possible group or series of goods including the goods the value of
which is to be determined, for which the needed information can be obtained. For the purpose of
Article 70, Paragraph 1, Letter (a), of the Act, th e goods "of the same category or kind" include both
goods imported from the same country as the goods the value of which is to be determined, and goods
imported from other countries.
Ad Article 70, Paragraph 2, of the ActG/VAL/N/1/CZE/3
Page 21
1. If this method is employed, the reductions made in recognition of the value added by further
processing or reworking shall be based on objective and quantifiable information on the costs of such
work. Relevant calculations shall be made using formulae, instructions, equations, calculating
methods and other general practices used by the industry in question.
2. This method of customs valuation is generally not applicable in cases the goods in question
lose their nature or character as a result of the further processing or reworking. Still, there may be
cases in which the imported goods lose their nature or character, but the value added by further
processing or reworking can be determined fairly  accurately without any substantial difficulties. On
the other hand, there may be cases in which imported goods retain their identity, but constitute such a
small element of goods sold in the country of im port that the use of this valuation method would not
be justified. Therefore, every situation must be approached on a case-by-case basis.
3. For example: goods are sold according to a price list which offers better unit prices for higher
quantities:
Quantity sold Unit price Number of sales Total quantity sold,
regardless of the price
1 to 10 units 100 10 sales 5 units each
5 sales 3 units each65
11 to 25 units 95 5 sales 11 units each 55
over 25 units 90 1 sale of 50 units
1 sale of 30 units80
The highest number of units sold for one unit price is 80; the unit price for the highest aggregate
amount is thus 90.
4. Another example: there were two sales transactions, the first involving 500 units sold at 95
currency units a piece, the second involving 400 units at 90 currency units apiece. In this example, the
greatest aggregate amount is 500 units; the corresponding unit price is thus 95 currency units.
5. Third example: various quantities being sold for various prices.
- Sales
Quantity sold Unit price
40 units 100
30 units  90
15 units 100
50 units  95
25 units 105
35 units  90
5 units 100

Total quantity sold Unit price
65 90
50 95
60 100
25 105G/VAL/N/1/CZE/3
Page 22
In this case, the greatest aggregate amount sold for one unit price is 65; the unit price for the highest
aggregate amount is thus 90.G/VAL/N/1/CZE/3

Annex 6 to Decree No. 135/1998 Coll.
Application of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
for Determining the Customs Value
1. The "generally accepted accounting principles"3 are based on an acknowledged consensus or
an important supporting authority in the country in question and at the time in question. They
determine how economic resources and obligations (expressed as assets and liabilities) are to be kept
track of, what changes of assets and liabilities are to be monitored, how to measure assets and
liabilities and their changes, what information must be published, and what financial reports need to
be prepared and how. These standards may be both general instructions and detailed procedures and
practices.
2. For the purpose of applying provisions regarding the determination of the customs value,
appropriate customs authorities shall make use of information prepared in a manner consistent with
the generally accepted accounting principles which pertain to the provision of the Act in question. For
example, the determination of the profit mark-up and general expenses referred to in Article 70,Paragraph 1, Letter (a), of the Act would be accomplished using information prepared in a manner
consistent with the accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic. On the other
hand, the determination of the profit mark-up and general expenses pursuant to Article 71 of the Act
would be accomplished using information prepared in a manner consistent with the accounting
principles generally accepted in the country of manufacture. Yet another example - the value of any ofthe tools and similar items referred to in Article 75, Paragraph 1, Letter (b), Indent 2, of the Act would
be accomplished using information prepared in a manner consistent with the accounting principles
generally accepted in the Czech Republic.

(5) Numerical and encoded data presented in the D.V.1 and D.V.1 BIS forms shall not be erased
