•           Paper documents by post;
•           Electronic versions by email; or
•           Digital Mail Service. 

 

These will all be replaced by a form to be submitted via the UK Trade Info website. 

 

If you cannot submit electronic forms, please contact the help desk on 03000 594231 or intrastatenquiries@hmrc.gov.uk with details of the customs declaration and adjustment.
