A word of counsel

The most common error on this tariff line is shipping consignments before confirming that the energy label affixed to each pump unit meets the exact star-rating and disclosure format prescribed under the 2026 Regulations — a mismatch between the physical label and the declared compliance documentation triggers detention and demurrage while rectification is sought, which for bulky pump consignments can accumulate rapidly. The Regulations came into force on 26 December 2025; importers sourcing from long-lead-time manufacturers should verify that the labelling obligation was incorporated into purchase orders placed before that date.
