CDS Planned Maintenance
Due to scheduled maintenance, the Customs Declaration Service (CDS) will be unavailable to all users between 19:00 PM until 20:30 PM on Thursday 23rd May 2024.
This is to enable HMRC to implement a series of changes to (CDS).
Declarations submitted during this timeframe will be processed at the end of the downtime.
Creating, updating, or embarking a goods movement reference (GMR) during this time will be affected. For guidance on GVMS please refer to the GVMS service availability and issues page.

Please ensure you have resiliency plans in place, or avoid these times especially in the case of perishable goods clearances you are undertaking.
HMRC has requested CCS-UK to pass on their apology for the inconvenience and to thank you for your patience.
