CDS Exports – Update from HMRC

All export declarations are moving from our Customs Handling of Import and Export Freight (CHIEF) system to the Customs Declaration Service (CDS) by 30 November 2023.

As you are aware, some Members are able to transition and submit their customs declarations using CDS Export. However, a number of declarants are still not able to fully utilise the CDS Export functionality.

The message will be sent to all export declarants who either use inventory linked locations or a mix of routes and the aim of the message is to provide instructions and help traders to prepare for moving to CDS for their export declarations.
