HMRC has issued guidance for Commonwealth Games Family members bringing goods in from outside the EU for the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games.

For accredited Commonwealth Games Family members entering the UK from countries outside the EU, most goods and sports equipment for use at the Games can be imported under the simplified Temporary Admission (TA) procedure specifically in place to cover the games.

Those entering the UK from a country that issues ATA carnets can temporarily import these goods for use at the games using an ATA carnet.

TA does not apply to goods not intended to be re-exported and goods given away free of charge.

The Commonwealth Games Family includes Commonwealth Games Associations and any dependants to the games with a requirement to import and export goods for use at the Games.
