UNITED KINGDOM: New requirements for the Summary Import Declaration (S&S GB) from 31 January 2025. From January 31, 2025 The UK Border Agency is introducing a mandatory submission of an Import Summary Declaration (S&S GB) for all shipments into the country. This requirement is part of measures to strengthen border control and security, as well as to facilitate customs procedures. Why is this requirement important? The import summary declaration will allow better traceability of the goods and help to assess the risks associated with the cargo being transported. Without a correctly completed declaration, it will not be possible to load goods onto ferries or trains such as Eurotunnel (LeShuttle), which may result in serious delays, financial penalties or a ban on entry. What does the declaration include? – Exporter and importer details– Valid EORI number and reference number– Carrier and vehicle information– Weight, number of packages and description of goods– Customs office through which the goods will pass– Additional details including seals (if applicable) How to prepare? Update your procedures:Make sure your internal cargo declaration processes meet the new requirements. Inform your team:Conduct trainings on handling the import summary declaration. Seek expert help:Contact specialists who can help you adapt to the new rules. Why is it important to act now?
