How to report issues using the Customs Declaration Service

Problems using the Customs Declaration Service to move goods across the border should be
reported using a new online form.

The form can be accessed here: https://tax.service.gov.uk/submissions/new-form/report-problem-submitting-declaration-using-customs-declaration-service

The online form has been introduced by HMRC to make resolving issues with the Customs Declaration
Process as easy as possible, urgent enquires will be dealt with in 2 hours, and all other
enquires should have a response within 24 hours.

However, if the problem relates to:

  • registering for CDS service – please email ISBC.eoricontact@hmrc.gov.uk
  • CDS Dashboard in GOV.UK service webpages or interfaces – raise a support ticket by
    selecting the ‘Get help with this page’ link at the bottom of the screen that identifies the
    issue.
