Simplify & Accelerate UK Customs Compliance

Faster Filing for Imports, Exports, and Transit

With one single message, CAS simultaneously files an export declaration from the country of departure and an import declaration in the country of destination, combined with transit to ensure frictionless border crossing. 

In the background, our Legal Content team keeps CAS up to date with all the latest legislation for each country so you can rest assured your shipments will clear customs with the proper documentation.

Unparalleled Integrations for End-to-End Clearance

CAS integrates with your ERP or WMS system, 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.
