CDS - The New Customs Declaration Service
90min course

Online: £189 +VAT per person
The Customs Declaration Service (CDS) has now replaced CHIEF for handling imports, with exports following in November 2023 (previously March). Every business that trades internationally must be signed up for CDS, so it is crucial to understand the new system in order to continue working well with your agents and trading effectively.
This highly practical 90-minute course will provide you with a step-by-step guide to using the CDS dashboard and will clearly outline the various new options and features available to you. Importantly, it will help you understand the new customs declarations and how they differ from the CHIEF C88s - highlighting the key boxes you will need to be aware of.
The course is presented by our international trade expert, David Hooper, who has already helped many businesses adapt their systems in readiness for the changes.
Any business that trades internationally but does not undertake the processing of declarations themselves - instead contracting this to a freight forwarder / customs broker or courier company.
Business owners, directors and managers that need to understand how to deal with the new procedures related to international trade.
You will need to have an understanding of the fundamental principles of import/export rules and procedures.
