Since EU Exit the BIFA Secretariat regularly receive questions regarding oral declarations, which seem particularly applicable to the RoRo environment.

HMRC have issued the following information on the subject: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/list-of-goods-applicable-to-oral-and-by-conduct-declarations?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=govuk-notifications-topic&utm_source=e4081905-f30c-4955-ae9f-2b540fe8cc9a&utm_content=daily

The oral or by conduct document lists those goods which can be declared orally or by conduct at the point of import or export. This list is exhaustive; meaning that no other goods, other than those that appear on the list, may be declared orally or by conduct.
