HMRC will switch OFF their current CHIEF system (AKA the “Customs Handling of Import & Export Freight”) on 30th September 2022 for all new import declarations.
The new CDS system (Customs Declaration System) will replace it.
You’ll need to Register for CDS – but this can take time, so do this SOONER RATHER THAN LATER.
Many businesses will already have a UK Government Gateway account to access their personal or business tax account, and they should use this account to register for CDS.
For further advice on CDS, contact ukcustomsqueries@translandgroup.co.uk
We were delighted to welcome the team from Palletways UK to our Dublin offices last week.
After so many ‘Zoom’ meetings it was great to meet in person for the first time since Covid restrictions were lifted.
Such an exciting time within the network and great to discuss the amazing developments planned, all designed to make the customer’s experience better … Our partnership just gets stronger and stronger!
Big thanks for making the trip to Gavin, Rob, Warwick, Gordon and Jennifer!
In response to the growing Ukranian refugee crisis Transland, PalletXpress and B Logistics will be sending trailers of humanitarian aid to the Polish-Ukrainian border. The first trailers are departing on Wednesday 9th March 2022.
This project is being co-ordinated with a charity called Heart to Hand, who have been distributing humanitarian aid to Eastern Europe for the past 30 years. Heart To Hand are partnered with the Missionaries of Charity in Warsaw, Poland, who distribute the aid to the refugee camps.
We wish to thank our customers, suppliers, staff and friends who have donated so generously.
