Types of Authorisation
The two main types of authorisation under the UK domestic legislation are "full" authorisations (including those involving another member state) and authorisation by declaration (formerly known as "simplified" authorisations).
This manual focuses on authorising "full" SP authorisations which need prior customs approval.
There is a separate section on Authorisation by Declaration in SPE05090.
