t seems such a short time since HMRC sent a reminder letter in March 2022 recalling the upcoming changes to the UK’s customs systems and explaining what to do to prepare for these changes.
With the deadline rapidly approaching, here’s a brief recap.
The Customs Handling of Import and Export Freight (CHIEF) system, which is now nearly 30 years old (it was introduced in 1994), will close in two phases:
- Phase one: After 30 September 2022, the ability to make import declarations will end
- Phase two: After 31 March 2023, the ability to make export declarations will end
