The Lines of Declaration tab may contain the following:

• A single panel with a list of the imported items or groups of items (grouped by HS code and the country of origin).
• Two panels: one with a list of groups of items and another with the items of of the selected group.

There can be multiple scenarios of filling out this tab with the following two main scenarios.

Scenario 1

You create a list of items or add more items to the existing list by clicking the Pick by Documents button and selecting the documents from the list of invoices received. For more details, see Working with the pick operation.
You are required to specify for each item an HS code and the country of origin.

Optionally, you can group the items by HS code and country of origin. For this, select the Group by H.S. Code and Country of Origin option.
Once the option is selected, the items in the list are replaced with groups, and a new panel appears in the lower part of the form. This lower panel lists the items of the group that is selected in the upper panel. For example, in the screenshot below, you can view 2 groups of items in the upper panel ("Seats" and "Furniture") and, in the lower panel, 2 items of group 1 ("Seats"), which is selected in the upper panel.

Make sure that the correct exchange rate (from the actually submitted customs declaration) for the foreign currency with respect to the national currency is selected in the Rate column. The amounts in the CIF Foreign Value column are converted to the national currency by using the specified rate and are shown in the CIF (AED) column.

Check and correct the duty rate for each group (or item). The duty amounts are calculated based on the CIF (AED) amounts resulted from the currency conversion.

To include the service charge into the VAT calculation, select the Include the Service Charge into Import Value (for VAT calculation) check box and click the Allocate Service Charge Amount button. This check box appears only if the amount in the Service Charge box is greater than zero. Once you click Allocate Service Charge Amount, the service charge amount will be allocated proportionally to the group/item amounts in the Service Charge column.
Then, the VAT amounts (in the VAT Amount (AED) column) for each item/group are calculated as the sum of the amounts from the following columns:
CIF (AED) , Duty Amount, and Charge Amount.

Scenario 2.

You create a list of the groups of items (grouped by HS code and the country of origin), for instance, from the actual customs declaration used at the customs office in such format (with groups only).
Check and correct the customs duty rate for each group. The duty amounts are calculated based on the CIF (AED) amounts resulted from the currency conversion.

To include the service charge into the VAT calculation, select the Include the Service Charge into Import Value (for VAT calculation) check box and click the Allocate Service Charge Amount button to allocate the service charge proportionally to group amounts.
If you need more details, you can add items to each group by using the Pick by Documents button on the toolbar of the lower panel. After that, you can allocate the group's all amounts (CIF AED, Total Duty, and Service Charge) within the group proportionally to the item amounts by using the Allocate button in the lower panel.

The document totals

At the bottom of the form, the following amounts are shown:

• The VAT (Reverse Charge) box shows the total VAT amount calculated according to the reverse charge mechanism.
• The Total Due box shows the sum of the service charge, tax penalties (if any), and duty amounts.
