Our customers were ready to ship on Day 1 of Brexit, but those who did not choose a digital solution must continue to adapt to new formalities and customs brokers are already overloaded. As new customs requirements continue to roll out, economic operators and logistics providers need to make sure they comply to ensure uninterrupted movement of goods. CAS is a centralised, collaborative platform designed to automate regional and worldwide customs declarations quickly and accurately, future-proofing your customs compliance. A CAS subscription combined with our Managed Customs Services for declarations is about half the cost of collaborating with customs brokers. Do you want to save costs while increasing efficiency?

The transitional EiDR scheme has been extended to the end of 2021, but this only provides a 175-day window to file supplementary declarations, followed by the final declarations. That means if you used EiDR at the beginning of the year, supplementary declarations imminentare due starting 25 June 2021. This requires a simplified declaration procedure authorisation prior the lodging of the first supplementary declaration. C4T can guide you through the process of obtaining this authorisation while onboarding you to CAS, which will provide you with a sustainable—and automated—solution that allows you to take advantage of Special Procedures.

CAS integrates with your ERP system or WMS, as well as with customs authorities and port community systems, serving as a customs control tower for all stakeholders. C4T has a close working relationship with HMRC, is connected to CHIEF today, and is in the process of connecting to CDS for a seamless transition as soon as it is launched. We have also integrated with NCTS and GVMS for transit and Community Service Providers such as Destin8 to satisfy formalities at each port. With these integrations, CAS is able to automate your declarations from end to end, with no action needed on your part.
