Customs Declaration Service
6 July 2022
I have a query on the Customs Declaration Service (CDS). There is very little VAT or duty on goods we carry as it is mostly meat products; however, I have seen several bits of CDS guidance recently that says importers need to register for the CDS on their Government Gateway account
Is that mainly just for the linking of Deposit Allocation Number (DAN) accounts to freight agents, and am I correct in thinking all EORI numbers will still be accepted by CDS if no VAT or duty is liable without the importer necessarily doing anything on the Government Gateway account?
