On 18th November NCTS switched on validation for LRNs and ARNs. This has resulted in receipt of G0033 errors on both Arrivals and Departures (GB). To resolve, you must input the Location Reference Number exactly as shown on your authorisation paperwork from the HMRC Transit Team.Please pay particular attention to case sensitivity and spacing.
At the same time, HMRC extended the NCTS message timers from 5 minutes to the time indicated in your authorised consignor/consignee documentation for each of your authorised locations. This will delay the time it takes for you to receive Goods Released for Transit or Unloading Permission Granted. We have seen examples of these timers being increased to 30 minutes. For further advice please contact the NCTS Helpdesk, phone 0300 322 7095 Email: ncts.helpdesk@hmrc.gov.uk or raise a ticket via the ASM Service Desk Portal. |

See message from HMRCDear TPEF Member, Barclays advise that there will be an outage of Barclays.Net and iportal during the weekend of 23rd – 24th November 2024. Critical maintenance is required during this time to ensure the ongoing stability of these services. If you use Barclays, please be aware: For payments in CDS Cash Account or Duty Deferment Account, Faster Payments is the only bank payment scheme which would normally process on Saturdays and Sundays, so there is no alternative during the maintenance. The recommendation would be to pay into the account in advance of the delays, to ensure sufficient balance was already present. For Immediate Payment the alternative during the maintenance would be via the Online Payment Service using Corporate Credit Card or Debit Card. This doesn’t require any change to the declarations, you can choose to make the payment via any supported route, no matter which of the specific Immediate Payment MOP codes you use. In either scenario, no declarations will be rejected, but they will be held pending release or clearance if the required funds are delayed by the use of Faster Payments during the Barclays maintenance.

See message from HMRCDear TPEF Member, Barclays will be carrying out planned maintenance on their File Gateway environment on Saturday 3rd August 2024, 5am to 1pm, this may have an impact on processing durations for some declarations. If you use Barclays please be aware: For payments in CDS Cash Account or Duty Deferment Account, Faster Payments is the only bank payment scheme which would normally process on Saturdays and Sundays, so there is no alternative during the outage. The recommendation would be to pay into the account in advance of the outage to ensure sufficient balance was already present. For Immediate Payment the alternative during the outage would be via the Online Payment Service using Corporate Credit Card or Debit Card. This doesn’t require any change to the declarations, you can choose to make the payment via any supported route, no matter which of the specific Immediate Payment MOP codes you use. In either scenario, no declarations will be rejected, but they will be held pending release or clearance if the required funds are delayed by the use of Faster Payments during the Barclays outage.

See message from HMRCTo help you prepare for the introduction of NCTS5 we are issuing regular updates. You can find all our updates on gov.uk. Implementation of NCTS5 and downtime To ensure the transition from NCTS4 to NCTS5 in Northern Ireland (NI) and Great Britain (GB) takes place with minimal disruption for traders the changes will be taking place on separate dates as follows: • Friday 28 June NCTS5 in NI (XI) • Monday 1 July NCTS5 in GB Some providers of commercial software will be switching their software from NCTS4 to NCTS5 on 1 July to ensure this takes place after both changes have been implemented. Commercial software providers should be contacting clients to confirm where they cannot switch over their NCTS5 software until 1 July 2024. However, it is recommended that businesses proactively check with their providers in advance of 28 June 2024. Friday 28 June 2024 The XI service will be unavailable from 09:00 – 16:00 British Summer Time (BST), for approximately 7 hours. Before this time, you will need to: - • Discharge all arrivals, where possible, to avoid delays as HMRC need to do this manually while the system is unavailable. • Make sure you have received the Release for Transit notification for any submitted declarations in order to move the goods. If your software provider cannot switch from NCTS4 to NCTS5 until 1 July, you should: • Submit and release before 09:00 on 28 June, all XI declarations for goods moving on 28, 29, or 30 June and 1 July, if you are an Authorised Consignor. • Re-plan your movement of goods to avoid 28, 29, 30 June and 1 July if you are moving goods under the Normal procedure; or • Use the Web portal following the downtime on Friday 28 June to submit declarations. Monday 1 July 2024 The GB service will be unavailable from 06:00 to 13:00 (BST), for approximately 7 hours. Before this time, you will need to: - • Discharge all arrivals, where possible, to avoid delays if HMRC need to do this manually while the system is unavailable. • Submit and release all declarations for goods moving on 1 July, if you are an Authorised Consignor/Consignee. While NCTS is down, you should refrain, where possible, from moving goods under the Normal procedure which requires attending Inland Border Facilities (IBFs) or ports to start movements. Please note: • While NCTS4 in XI is unavailable, the GB NCTS4 service will still be online and available to submit declarations. • While NCTS4 in GB is unavailable, the new XI NCTS5 will be online and available to submit declarations. Important If you must move goods and have been unable to submit the declarations prior to the start of system downtime, you will be able to use the existing manual fallback procedure, although we recommend you do not travel to an Inland Border Facility (IBF) to start a transit movement until the system is available. You can find the manual fallback process in the Transit Manual Supplement. Please find attached further important information relating to our cutover to NCTS5. Please look out for our webinar on 19 June 2024 at 13.00 where we will cover the downtime and business continuity subjects above in more depth.

See message from CCS-UKEmergency CCS-UK System update @ 3pm UK time 2nd April 2024Further to issues experienced with HMRC’s dual running of CDS and CHIEF systems, there have been issues experienced by the CCS-UK Cargo community since the UK clock change and is having a substantial impact on cargo export. This has now been diagnosed and a change to the operation of CCS-UK is being implemented urgently to address the major impact being experienced in Freight delays across the UK. NB: EAL (Export Arrival) messages submitted into CCS-UK by Trader and Airline systems will now need to send messages using UK time (not Zulu time as previously advised). This change will take place at 3pm today (2nd April) CCS-UK apologises for the disruption and short notice for this change, but it is as a result of combination of the CDS/CDA Exports transition combined with the UK Clock change to BST..
