Customs Declarations

Helping Traders Keep on Trading

Trading businesses must now also be prepared with customs declarations and additional paperwork. 

It is vital all businesses comply with the new rules for any import and export of goods outside of the UK and ensure customs declarations are in place. Check how it has changed for your business by following this link.

With the new rule changes we are asking businesses “Do you Import and/or Export goods to the EU or rest of the world?” if the answer is yes, we are here to help you complete your customs declarations!  We offer an HMRC compliant service you can trust.  This service offers traders a high level of compliance with HMRC procedures and offers a direct link for customs clearance through all sea, air and road ports and terminals in the UK.

Once you have signed up to Sussex Chamber Customs you will receive a welcome pack which will explain the basics of our service, how to prepare for import/export formalities, together with a checklist and examples to ease you through the process.

An export declaration is required every time goods are exported outside of the UK. This document is used by the customs authority at the ports to control exports.

Import Declarations

An import declaration is an official document in which you specify details about the goods you are importing. If you are a UK based and bringing goods into the UK, you must complete an electronic import declaration.
