The Customs Declaration Service (CDS) is the UK government’s newly implemented electronic system for managing customs declaration processes. CDS will replace the existing CHIEF system, and all businesses will have to start declaring goods through the CDS on 30 March 2024.
CDS offers a user-friendly interface, making it easier for businesses to submit declarations. Further migration to CDS will eliminate paperwork and enable electronic communication with customs authorities.
With CDS, businesses can comply with customs regulations more easily. Stay updated on the latest implementation status of CDS by registering for HMRC’s email notifications.
