PLEASE NOTE:
Successful completion of CBAFF training courses and passing the three Customs Broking exams, is not a guarantee of the issuance of a UUI by NZ Customs - it is one component of NZ Customs' criteria. NZ Customs will not issue a UUI to persons not actively engaged in the industry as the lodgement of Customs entries require linking users to an employer and clients.
