Update

Further to our last message, we are moving our outage window for the Customs Declarations Service (CDS) from Tuesday 17/05/2022 to Saturday 21/05/2022, this is to incorporate additional work, and reduce the number of outages for the Service. As a result, you will not be able to submit declarations, or populate GMRs with CDS declaration references, between the period specified below:

 

 

  • 2.5 hour Outage on Declarations from 22:30 - 01:00 - (Declarations submitted will be held in a queue until the service is resumed)

 

 

You should submit your declarations and complete your GMR with any CDS MRNs/ DUCRs before 22:20 on 21/05/2022 to avoid any delays.
