Long-term supplier's declaration use case
Long-term supplier's declarations (LLE) are valid for deliveries over a longer period of time (provided that the delivered goods are expected to have the same origin status). With regard to their validity, it should be noted that the date of issue of the declaration (date of issue), the start date of validity and the expiration date must be specified in an LLE, whereby the start date may be a maximum of 12 months before or 6 months after the date of issue. This means that only individual supplier's declarations are permitted for deliveries made more than 1 year ago. The expiration date, on the other hand, may be a maximum of 24 months after the start date (or earlier if necessary) - this necessarily results in the date by which a new LLE must be submitted.
