Appendix 2 Inventory Imports C21i: DE 1/11: Additional Procedure Codes

Updated 4 June 2024

This Appendix contains the index list and specific completion instructions for each 3-digit Additional Procedure Code that can be used in Data Element (DE) 1/11 for Bulk Import Reduced Data Set (BIRDS) and Inventory imports Customs Clearance Requests (CCR).

Use the index list below and the Additional Procedure Code completion notes to help you identify the correct code to use and for guidance on how to complete the BIRDS declaration or CCR.

Notes:

The DE 1/11 Additional Procedure Codes in this appendix may only be used where no other Additional Procedure Code specified in the CDS Declaration Instructions for Imports collection applies.

The Additional Procedure Codes listed in this appendix are not valid for use on a C21i (Entry in Declarant’s Records) EIDR Notification of Presentation (NOP). Additional Procedure Codes from the CDS Declaration Instructions for Imports collection must be used instead.

The completion notes in this Appendix are a supplement to the main CDS BIRDS Declarations and Customs Clearance Request completion instructions for inventory imports.

These completion notes are a supplement to the DE 1/10 Procedure Code Notes and therefore any instructions relating to the requested or previous procedure included against the relevant DE 1/10 Procedure Code (see Appendix 1: DE 1/10: Requested and Previous Procedure Codes) must also be followed.

The DE 1/10 completion notes are not repeated against or superseded by the DE 1/11 completion notes.

This Appendix only contains any additional completion notes for each 3-digit Additional Procedure Code and does not constitute full guidance on how the declaration 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.
