What is Customs Declaration Service?
The Customs Declaration Service (CDS) will replace CHIEF as the system through which imports into the UK are declared from 1 October 2022.
Whilst the majority of businesses instruct third party freight forwarders and customs agents to process import declarations on their behalf, action is still required by businesses before 1 October 2022, including subscribing to CDS.
HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) has been writing to businesses with a GB EORI number to alert them to the forthcoming changes, and the most recent communication from HMRC has clarified the steps traders need to take in readiness for the change.
