Term: A.TR. movement certificate
Component: SLL Global Trade Services
Definition: An A.TR. movement certificate is an official customs document used within the European Union and Turkey to certify that goods moving between these regions qualify for preferential tariff treatment under the EU-Turkey Customs Union agreement. It confirms that the goods are in free circulation and thus exempt from import duties or subject to reduced tariffs.
How It’s Used: In SAP Global Trade Services (GTS), the A.TR. movement certificate is used to manage and document the preferential trade status of goods transported between the EU and Turkey. During customs clearance or shipment processing, the system generates or records the A.TR. certificate to ensure compliance with trade agreements and to facilitate duty-free or reduced-duty imports and exports. This helps companies optimize customs duties and maintain audit trails for customs authorities.
Important Configuration:
- Configure certificate types and templates for A.TR. certificates in SAP GTS under SPRO > Global Trade Services > Compliance Management > Certificates > Define Certificate Types
- Maintain partner profiles and assign certificate usage to relevant business partners
- Set up automatic certificate determination and generation rules in SAP GTS to trigger A.TR. certificates during relevant trade transactions
- Use transaction codes such as /SAPSLL/CERT to manage certificates and /SAPSLL/TRADE for trade document processing
