The letter includes information about the work under way to move to a single UK customs platform – the Customs Declaration Service – and outlines what businesses need to do to prepare for the change, and what help, and guidance is available to support them through the process.
The Customs Declaration Service will become the UK single customs platform after 31 March 2023, replacing the Customs Handling Import and Export Freight (CHIEF) system. Ahead of the complete closure, the import declaration function will be withdrawn on 30 September this year.
The Customs Declaration Service is founded on advanced technology and provides an agile, scalable and secure platform which has processed more than 2.5 million declarations to date. HMRC is urging declarants to take advantage of help offered to start the migration to the Customs Declaration Service now – either by working with a software developer or Community System Provider, or by accessing the help themselves to get ready to move to the Customs Declaration Service which could take up to six months depending on the scale and complexity of the business.
