GB-NI goods movements, compliance is key: October is the awkward month.

Anything that arrived before 20 October is on the old TSS. Anything from 20 October is on the new one. The SDs for both are due on Tuesday 10 November.

Start with your own list of October loads and tick each one off against both platforms.

Comment TSS and we'll DM you the 22-point checklist.

When did you last check every SD on the old TSS?

It closes on Monday 30 November. Before then, open every supplementary declaration and look at the status. If it says Draft, Input Required, Pending Payment, Tax Calculation Verification or Fiscal Hold, it’s still open. Completed doesn’t count either. An SD is only finished when it shows Closed.

Since the Assisted Completion Service shut on 15 September, nobody at the TSS will finish an open one for you. The TSS is free. The liability for an open SD stays with your business.

We go through every SD, find the ones still open and get them to Closed.

Comment TSS and I’ll send you the 22-point checklist and a link to book a free 30-minute Health Check. We’re taking 30 before 30 November.

From today, your loads to Northern Ireland go through a system you've never used.

The new TSS went live this morning, and every movement between Great Britain and Northern Ireland now goes through it. The old TSS takes no new movements, and it closes for good on Monday 30 November.

Two jobs for this week. Get your first movement through on the new TSS without errors. Then start closing out every SD still open on the old one.

If your first load won't go through, comment TSS or message me and we'll find out why.

A load arriving in Northern Ireland on Tuesday can't go on the old TSS.

From 20 October, the old TSS takes no new movements. Anything arriving on or after that date goes on the new one.

So today, look at every load due to arrive from Tuesday. Check it's set up on the new TSS, under the right login, with your agent linked.

Anything already on the old TSS still needs closing before Monday 30 November.

Comment TSS and I'll send you the 22-point checklist. We're taking 30 free Health Checks before 30 November.

We're not here to replace the customs brokers and freight forwarders doing essential work every day.

We're here to give the businesses they work for visibility over what's actually been declared on their behalf — the missing layer between "we submitted it" and "we can prove it was right."

HC Customs sits alongside your broker, not instead of them.

The Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism is coming for UK importers of steel, aluminium, cement, fertiliser, and more — and reporting obligations start before most businesses have a system to handle them.

HC Customs is building CBAM reporting into the same platform you already use for customs compliance — one connection, not another disconnected tool to manage.

Special procedures like Inward and Outward Processing can save real money — but only if the authorisation, the CPC codes, and the discharge deadlines all line up.

Miss a bill of discharge deadline and a duty suspension can turn into a duty demand overnight.

HC Customs tracks your IP/OP authorisations and deadlines in one place, so nothing expires quietly in the background.

Overpaid customs duty doesn't announce itself. It just sits there, quietly, on declarations nobody's gone back to check.

HC Customs reconciles your full declaration history against what you actually owed — and surfaces what's claimable through a C285 before you leave it on the table.

Compliance and cash recovery, from the same platform.
