FTA Certificates and Letters - Creating a Long Term Supplier Declaration (LTSD)

If a European Free Trade Agreement is configured to generate a Long Term Supplier Declaration (LTSD), additional header fields may need to be completed.
In keeping with the regulatory requirements, the Start Date for an LTSD may not be more than 12 months before the Date of Issue (the date on which the Declaration is made out) or more than 6 months after the Date of Issue. The End Date may not be more than 24 months after the Start Date.
It is also possible to generate a multi-product, multi-agreement LTSD on this screen. For the purposes of screenshots and further instructions in these scenarios, the below sections follow the multi-product LTSD process. For a single product/agreement LTSD, only the
