En godkendt eksportør som omhandlet i artikel 23 kan dog undlade at underskrive sådanne erklæringer, forudsat at han skriftligt over for toldmyndighederne i udførselslandet tilkendegiver, at han påtager sig det fulde ansvar for alle fakturaerklæringer, der angiver ham, som om de faktisk var forsynet med hans håndskrevne underskrift.
However, an approved exporter within the meaning of Article 23 shall not be required to sign such declarations provided that he gives the customs authorities of the exporting country a written undertaking that he accepts full responsibility for any invoice declaration which identifies him as if it had been signed in manuscript by him.
