* Rating Advice and Enquiry Form (revised October 2005)

If rating enquiries are sent in by fax and followed up with a 'hard copy' by post, it would be helpful to us if such hard copies were marked up clearly to that effect, so that we can avoid duplication.
NB A Rating Enquiry is not an export licence application.
