A customs declaration is an official document used to provide details about goods being exported from or imported into the UK.
When exporting goods from the UK, it’s necessary to submit an export declaration, and when importing goods into the UK, an import declaration must be submitted.
Additionally, for trade with EU countries, customs declarations are required for both exports and imports. These import/ export customs declarations contain information about the nature of the goods, their value, origin, and other relevant details necessary for customs clearance and compliance with regulations.
Completing accurate and comprehensive import/export customs declarations is key to ensure compliance with customs requirements and for facilitating smooth trade operations.
