Although it is commonly accepted that import duties are levied from goods, that is tangible property, there is still some debate about if and to what extent the value of software should be included in the customs value of imported goods. This debate has been revived in the EU after the Court's decision in the BMW Bayerische Motorenwerke AG v. Hauptzollamt München-case. In this contribution the author analysis to what extent the value of software should be part of the customs value of imported goods.
