There are exceptions to processing fees in Hartlepool, particularly regarding policies for fish imported from specific countries. If fish are caught by EU or EFTA vessels but processed in a third country, they lose their low-risk status and are charged at a higher rate.
For example:
| Type of Fish | Fee Condition | Fee Charge |
|---|---|---|
| Fish from EU/EFTA countries (processed in third country) | Lose low-risk status; charged higher rate | Higher rate applicable |
| Fish from low-risk imports (EEA/EFTA countries) | Maintains low-risk status when processed in specified countries | Standard low-risk fee applicable |
If you're dealing with imports or specific permit applications, it's good to review the detailed fees and charges, which could vary based on these exceptions.
