Exit Safety and Security Summary Declaration (EXS)
If the C21e is also being used to provide the Exit Safety and Security Summary Declaration (EXS), the EXS data elements stipulated in Appendix 23: Declaration Category Data Sets must be declared on the C21e.
The C21e Entry in Declarants Record (EIDR) Notification in Presentation (NOP) must not be used for EXS purposes.
C21e:
The DE 1/10 Procedure Codes in this appendix may only be used where no other Procedure Code specified in the Exports: guidance on completing an export declaration for the Customs Declaration Service applies.
The completion notes in this Appendix are a supplement to the main UK main Customs Declaration Service (CDS) Customs Clearance Request Completion Instructions for Inventory Exports.
This Appendix only contains any additional completion notes for each C21e 4-digit Procedure Code and does not constitute full guidance on how the C21e Customs Clearance Request (CCR) should be completed.
Only one 4-digit Procedure Code can be declared against each goods item in DE 1/10, however, this may be tailored to the specific circumstances for the goods treatment by the use of multiple Additional Procedure Codes in DE 1/11.
The Procedure Code 00 17, detailed in this inventory tariff, may only be used on a C21e for EIDR releases where:
- the goods are being moved from one Member State to another and have already been released to a customs procedure in the UK via EIDR, Single Authorisation for Simplified Procedures (SASP) or centralised clearance or
- the goods are being dispatched from the UK to another Special Fiscal Territory or territory with which the EU has formed a Customs Union and the goods have already been released to a customs procedure in the UK via EIDR, SASP or centralised clearance.
The C21e should be completed to match the details recorded in the EIDR authorised parties’ records. A supplementary declaration must be completed and submitted in accordance with the normal rules unless a waiver applies.
These completion notes are supplemented by the DE 1/11 Additional Procedure Code Notes and therefore any instructions relating to the Additional Procedure Code (3-digit code for DE 1/11) are not included here and must be read in addition to this Appendix.
C21e EIDR NOP:
C21e EIDR NOP is used to release goods at an inventory linked location. It also acts as the Notification of Presentation (NOP) under the EIDR process.
The Procedure Code used in DE 1/10 must be selected from the Appendix 1: DE 1/10: Requested and Previous Procedure Codes from the Exports: guidance on completing an export declaration for the Customs Declaration Service where they are being released direct to a customs procedure or use.
A supplementary declaration must be completed and submitted in accordance with the normal rules unless a waiver applies.
In all other cases, the C21i EIDR NOP data set should be used with the appropriate Procedure Code selected from Appendix 1: DE 1/10: Requested and Previous Procedure Codes from the Exports: guidance on completing an export declaration for the Customs Declaration Service .
