Message from CCS-UK
Please be advised that as a part planned system maintenance, CCS-UK Service requires an emergency scheduled system downtime (impacting all services) on Thursday 14th May 2026 starting at 11:30am BST to 12:30pm BST (upto 1 hrs).
During this time, the connectivity to and from CCS-UK will not be available to you, meaning users will not be able to undertake Import and/or Exports clearances via the CCS-UK system.
Please ensure you have resiliency plans in place or avoid these times especially in the case of perishable goods clearances you are undertaking.
CCS-UK apologise for the inconvenience caused and thank you for your patience.
