How To Decipher HMRC’s Legal Letter?

Trader Support Service (TSS) is used to guide through any changes due to implementation of the Northern Ireland Protocol if goods are moved between Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Why Are Digital Import Declarations Necessary?

For goods moving from Great Britain to Northern Ireland, digital import declarations and safety and security declarations are important because:

  1. Goods destined for Ireland need to pay tariffs when they can
  2. Tariffs should not be paid on trade within the UK
  3. Northern Ireland benefits from UK Free Trade Agreements

You can use Trader Support Service to make these declarations.

 

For Whom Is The Trader Support Service Available For?

The Trader Support Service is free to use and available to all traders, carriers and intermediaries moving goods into and out of Northern Ireland – regardless of size.

 

What Is An EORI Number And How Can You Get It?

An EORI number that starts with XI is needed to move goods to or from Northern Ireland from 1st January 2021.

To get an EORI number that starts with XI, you must already have an EORI number that starts with GB.

You can apply for an EORI number that starts with GB in case you do not have one.

Please note that if you sign up for the Trader Support Service before 23 November 2020, you will automatically be allocated an XI EORI which can save you a lot of time and effort.

However, you may be required to make a separate application for an XI EORI if you do not sign up before 23 November 2020.

 

Will You Gain Access To Anything After You Register For The Trader Support Service?

Yes. You will gain access to a programme of free information along with training from the Northern Ireland Customs and Trade Academy.
