Free trade zones in Germany<\/strong> are special areas within the customs territory of the country. Goods placed inside these areas are free of import duties, VAT and other import charges. When the goods are stored in a free trade zone<\/strong>, no import<\/strong><\/a> declaration has to be lodged. Free trade zones in Germany<\/strong> are established and operated under the provisions of the commercial law in Germany<\/strong><\/a> and EU laws. They are located in areas with geographic advantages for trade like major seaports, international airports and national frontiers. Detailed presentations about the trading procedures in a free trade zone<\/strong> can be delivered to you by our attorneys in Germany<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The free trade zones in Germany<\/strong>are the Freeport of Bremerhaven<\/strong> and the Freeport of Cuxhaven<\/strong>. The Bremerhaven area was subject to a number of expansions and it now totals an approximately area of 4,000,000 square meters. It is separated from the domestic territory by a customs fence. The Freeport of Cuxhaven covers an area of about 147,800 square meters and it is also separated from the rest of the customs territory. The list of free trade zones in Germany also included the Port of Hamburg, however, this location has lost its status. The parts of the two mentioned ports are not treated as part of the Community for the purpose of customs taxation. In general, these areas in the country are not subject to the German domestic sales tax.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This special treatment meaning that domestic deliveries to a free port can be treated as export deliveries. This is because the area in questions is not treated as part of the domestic territory nor as part of the rest of the Community. These two territories are not subject to the German domestic sales tax, however, some transactions may be subject to tax in the free port when they are treated as domestic sales. This is allowed for the purpose of preventing untaxed final consumption.

The Community Customs Code includes the definition, rationale and the main policies around the free trade zones<\/strong>. Irrespective of their definition, these areas are credited for attracting foreign investment<\/strong><\/a>.
