4. Key Changes to Declarations
Event Name Here
11/14/2018
Key Changes to Declarations
Declarations will require completion using Data elements, rather than by box number. Split into 8 data groups
Procedure codes formally called Customs Procedure Codes will be split into 2 parts
Harmonisation of codes – set out in Law and Appendices
An audit trail of previous document ID’s (MUCR, DUCR and MRN)
Increased number of items allowed per declaration from 99 to 999
Speaker Notes:
Declarations will require completion by Data elements, rather than by box number.
What we currently refer to as boxes on the C88/SAD will be called data elements (DE) under the New CDS System. Where these are multifunctional under the SAD H declaration, they will be separated into individual data elements under CDS .
For example Box 8 – Importer/consignee is now 6 separate data elements, separated by – Importer name and address, Importer Identification Number, Buyer Name and address, Buyer identification number, Consignee name and address and consignee identification number.
You won’t necessarily need to complete the full range of data elements available on CDS, only the ones relevant to your declaration category.
The new data sets have a number of differences from SAD H and are grouped into 8 data tables as follows:
Message information including Procedure Codes
References of messages, documents certificates and authorisations,
Parties
Valuation information and taxes
Dates, times, periods, places, countries and regions
Goods identification
Transport information
Other data elements
The Data elements in each group will follow the group number e.g.all Data elements in group 1 - Messaging and information including procedure codes, will start with a 1. for example D.E.1/2 is where you will enter the declaration type and so on.
Procedure codes formally called Customs Procedure Codes will be split into 2 parts
CPCs currently go in box 37 of the SAD , However under CDS the Procedure codes will be split into 2 parts.
The first part comprises of 4 digits called the Procedure Code, completed using D.E.1/10 to be found in Annex 1 of the Tariff.
The second part comprises of 3 digits and will be referred as the Additional Procedure Code, completed in D.E.1/11 to be found in Annex 2 of the Tariff.
There is likely to be more than one 3 digit Additional Procedure code and up to a maximum of 99 per 4 digit Procedure code.
For example most imports are likely to have 2, 3 digit Additional procedure codes, one for Duty, one for VAT and if appropriate, a 3 digit Additional procedure code for Excise I will give you an example of how this looks shortly.
Harmonisation of codes – set out in Law and Appendices
The Implementing Act(IA) to the Union Customs code (UCC) identifies specific codes that must be declared for example: AI codes, Additional procedure codes and delivery terms.
A fairly large percentage of data elements, where identified in Law, specify which format or code must be used.
Where the Law does not specify EU codes then national codes can be used.
With reference to document code referred to in D.E.2/3, appendix 5 provides details of EU codes and National codes.
These codes can be used together.
Where EU codes are used they must come first.
An Audit trail of previous document ID’s (MUCR,DUCR and MRN)
The current entry number under CHIEF will become a Movement Reference Number (MRN) under CDS.
Further details on what is required for MUCR and DUCR can be found under D.E.2/1 of the Data element Completion Rules.
Increased number of items allowed per declaration from 99 to 999.

SPEAKER NOTES:
Declaration Categories:
The data element completion rules provided in this document indicate for which types (categories) of declarations the data element is required, for example, data element 1/1 needs to be completed for categories: C21, H1, H2, H3, H4, H5 & I1.
For correlation purposes:
Full customs declarations are referred to under the Union Customs Code as standard customs declarations
Declaration categories H1, H3, H4 and H5 will be used for the Supplementary Declaration data sets.
Appendix 21: Declaration Category Data Sets provides a detailed breakdown of the specific data elements needed for each declaration category.
There is a separate table in Appendix 21 for each declaration category type, for example H1 data set.
These tables also provide a cross reference from the new element data number to the previous SADH box reference number for correlation purposes.
The data set tables in Appendix 21 also state whether the data element is mandatory in all cases, optional for the declarant or dependant on the circumstances being declared.

Supplementary declaration covered by types C and F Z
Supplementary declarations for Entry in Declarants Records
Detailed explanation below extracted from The Data Element completion rules as requested by Caroline Wilkins
SPEAKER NOTES:
All Declaration Categories:
The codes in the first column are used to indicate both the type of declaration and if the goods have arrived or not at the goods location.
For electronic declarations the code used must be consistent with the CDS transaction being used.
As I mentioned earlier For correlation purposes:
Customs declarations are referred to under the Union Customs Code as Standard Customs declarations
The Simplified Frontier Declarations (SFDs) used under Customs Freight Simplified Procedures is referred to under the Union Customs Code as a Simplified Declaration
*The data set to be used for the B and E additional declaration types will be specified in the completion notes for the custom procedure being used. Unless specified in the D.E. 1/10 and 1/11 Procedure codes notes, types B and E may not be used.
See Appendix 1: D.E. 1/10: Requested and Previous Procedure Codes and Appendix 2: D.E. 1/11: Additional Procedure Codes for more details.
**For (C and F): I1 data requirements identified within these data element completion rules are for normal simplified declarations only.
The specific data elements in the following pages will indicate where completion on an I1 is only mandatory for:
Controlled goods being entered on a simplified declaration or
A claim to a tariff quota is being made on the simplified declaration.
Where the customs procedure being declared requires additional data to be provided, these will be over and above the data elements identified against the I1 data set indicated in the following pages.
Again The specific completion rules detailed in the Appendix 1: D.E. 1/10: Requested and Previous Procedure Codes or Appendix 2: D.E. 1/11: Additional Procedure Codes completion notes should be followed.
Where the Procedure Code requires the completion of the I1 as a standard H1 data set, the completion rules, as specified for the H1 declaration should be followed.
***Additional Declaration Types Y and Z must be completed using the appropriate data set for the H1, H3, H4 and H5 standard customs declaration data sets, dependent on the customs procedure being used.
Notes:
D.E. 1/2 must be left blank on paper declaration continuation sheets when used.

SPEAKER NOTES
We are Featuring a H1 category type supplementary declaration, because supplementary declarations are the first to go live on CDS.
This slide shows an example of goods being released from customs warehouse following entry in the EIDR record. The supplementary declaration is usually transmitted after the goods have been released from the customs warehouse. This has to be by the fourth working day of the following month. The declarant will then:
Log in through Government Gateway or through your software provider.
Submit a supplementary declaration type Z, according to the Data Element completion rules for H1 Category, as per the new Volume 3 Tariff – Clarify
HMRC Validates the information provided and will reject the declaration, if invalid data has been entered. If this is the case the information will have to be amended and the declaration resubmitted.
The CDS system will then undertake Risk profiling and compare the information submitted to the Tariff & Business rules.
Because the goods will have already been released, Assurance activity will take place at a later date.
Full details of what data elements need to be completed for this declaration are in the new Volume 3 import Tariff. H1

SPEAKER NOTES:
Now we will have a closer look at stages 6 & 7 from the previous slide:
This example shows a Supplementary Declaration for goods, in this instance, children's T-shirts that have been released into Free Circulation, via EIDR. The Supplementary Declaration will then be completed using the Data elements for a H1 Declaration category.
The Declarant or Agent will complete the declaration as follows:
In D.E.1/2, the declarant or agent will enter Z, to indicate they are making an Entry into the Declarants Record, Supplementary Declaration.
The Declarant will then enter the goods description in D.E.6/8 in this case T-shirts, followed by the 8 digit commodity code in D.E. 6/4 in this case
The Declarant will then complete D.E. 1/10 to show the 4 Digit Procedure code, which I explained earlier, in this case ‘4071’ Ex-Warehouse, followed in D.E. 1/11 by the relevant 3 digit Additional Procedure Codes. In this case C32 as the goods are being taken from the warehouse as trade fair samples, so duty relief is allowed and a 2nd 3 digit additional procedure code , F45 is entered for VAT relief.
Finally the declarant will complete D.E.6/17 to enter the National Additional Code, VATE, to indicate that the goods are zero rated Children’s clothing.
