Customs Declarations UK is a cloud platform for filing Great Britain import and export declarations directly with HMRC’s Customs Declaration Service. It covers GB CDS imports and exports, GB ENS, EU ICS2 entry summary declarations, and NCTS6 T1/T2 transit movements. Step-by-step filing wizards adapt to shipment requirements, and real-time checks flag inconsistencies before submission. Its document processing uses OCR and AI to read invoices, packing lists, and transport documents, then draft supported declarations for human review. API connections can link it with TMS, ERP, and freight software for document intake and drafting. It integrates with CSPs MCP, CNS, and CCS-UK, and includes GVMS management. The company offers personalized onboarding, ongoing training, and assistance with complex customs scenarios. Pay-as-you-go has no monthly fee, though onboarding charges may apply; subscriptions require at least six months’ notice to cancel. Filing prices vary: ICS2 costs £4 per declaration, GB CDS £25 per declaration, and NCTS6 departures £15. NCTS6 filings require the customer’s own transit guarantee.
Who it is for
The platform is aimed at freight forwarders, hauliers, customs brokers, importers, and exporters, from first-time filers to high-volume users. It suits teams that need supported customs filings and document drafting.
