01UK import
CDS import declaration
Before release into Great BritainThe importer, commodity, customs value, origin, procedure and tax position are declared and linked to the arrival route.
UK & EU customs coordination
Customs clearance
UK and EU customs-clearance coordination for road, air and sea freight, with document review, declaration data, movement references and border handovers managed alongside transport.
How the service is planned
Built from the cargo data, route and delivery requirement.
Carnigo works with experienced customs partners to coordinate the declaration and the physical movement as one process. We check the commercial invoice, packing list, EORI, commodity code, origin, value, Incoterm and representation position before the relevant CDS, transit or safety-and-security submission is arranged.

Customs workflow guide
The declaration data must match the goods and the route.
Customs is not a single document. The required entry and references depend on the direction of travel, customs procedure, country, border system, carrier and whether goods move under transit.
02UK export
CDS export declaration
Before goods leave the UKThe export MRN and supporting evidence are coordinated with the carrier, port or movement process.
03Transit
NCTS / T1 or T2 where applicable
Customs control continues to destinationThe Transit Accompanying Document and MRN travel with the goods until the movement is discharged correctly.
04Safety & security
ENS where required
Submitted before arrivalEntry Summary Declaration data supports pre-arrival risk assessment and is separate from the customs import declaration.
Planning note: Carnigo coordinates declarations through customs partners. Classification, origin, valuation and licensing remain fact-specific and may require client evidence or specialist advice.
Documents and data
The references behind the movement.
Transport paperwork, customs data and shipment instructions must describe the same goods. Carnigo follows those links through the operating chain.
Customs Declaration Service
The UK system used for customs import and export declarations, producing the relevant declaration reference and status messages.
Movement Reference Number
The unique reference generated for a customs or transit declaration and used to connect the entry to the physical movement.
