What is a Customs Declaration?
A customs declaration (or C88 SAD) is the paperwork that is required to get goods through customs. Previously goods that moved around the EU did not require a customs declaration due to free movement of goods. However since January 2021 customs declarations are now required for all EU imports and exports.

We’ve had a working relationship since January 2021. ChamberCustoms have provided full support for any inbound shipments requiring an import declaration.
We have found the service provided to be extremely thorough and in line with what is required for an accurate and true import declaration under HMRC rules and regulations. We maintain the full trust of these employees to handle all Siemens Energy clearance requests.
We have been using ChamberCustoms on a weekly basis since November 2020 and have been very impressed with the knowledge, professionalism, and approachability of the staff.
As a company, we had no experience of customs requirements whatsoever, but then Brexit happened and suddenly we had to learn a whole new topic in a very short time, but the girls at
Lincolnshire ChamberCustoms were supportive, informative, helpful, and extremely knowledgeable. There is nothing that fazes them. We are still using them 3 years later. Why? Because of their speed of response, reliability, and efficiency. A first class service!
ChamberCustoms do a great job in dealing with our exports in a fast and timely manner and we always receive our export documents within a couple of hours. They have competitive pricing and with that comes a great service. Georgia and Karen are very informative and helpful with any questions we have.
We are very pleased with the service ChamberCustoms provide and will definitely continue to use them, thank you.
