Users of the NCTS have been urged to move to the new XML API channel in good time, before the channel scheduled shut down date of 30th November, 2021. 

HMRC have updated the NCTS newsletters (link below) after announcing the next phase of closing NCTS data submission methods


Users of the NCTS have been urged to move to the new XML API channel in good time, before the channel scheduled shut down date of 30th November, 2021. 

There has been some concern that those using the legacy channel were not perceived as moving across quickly enough.


HMRC have now also confirmed that the NCTS email channel will close on 28th February, 2022. There will be no replacement for the email method of linking to NCTS, and HMRC urge those affected to move to another method of communications, again, in good time.


For those not yet registered to use NCTS and needing to use the transit system, HMRC request that sufficient time is allowed for the registration process.
