In 2018, the UK government began a sweeping change of the import/export customs system by introducing the Customs Declaration Service (CDS) platform. For 25 years previously, the system used was Customs Handling of Import and Export Freight (CHIEF).
With CDS estimated to be able to handle more than four times the number of declarations as CHIEF per year, and with Brexit looming, the decision was made to upgrade the UK’s customs system.
Both systems have been utilised in a dual approach by HMRC, but the CHIEF platform will be switched off entirely by March 2023.
Due to this, it’s essential for all importers and exporters to become familiar with CDS, including the completion of additional paperwork and regulations.
