HMRC announce downtime for 3 systems CHIEF/ NCTS & GVMS over the weekend 3 & 4 July 2021
We have been advised that there will be a period of planned work to some of our systems on Sunday 4th July which will result in an outage to CHIEF between 18.00 and 20.00. See update 1-07-2021
A reminder of some other planned downtime for our systems this weekend:
HMRC had previously planned to take NCTS down for over two hours during the morning of June 16th but following feedback from industry we reduced the duration and scope of that outage. The work that we removed from June 16th will now be conducted at 01:00 on Sunday July 4th with completion expected by 03:45.
GVMS will also be down during that period as we deliver an upgrade; this will take place on the 3rd of July at 23:59 BST to 05:00am BST 4th of July (5 hours).

Halloween wasn’t just a marketing opportunity for this company, for Jasper & Veil Ltd.; it was peak season. Their custom ghoulish gift boxes were packed with ghost-shaped biscuits, spooky mugs, novelty sweets, and glow-in-the-dark clothing, and flew off the shelves faster than you could say “trick or treat.”
Export and import controls aren't just red tape…. They are serious! The penalties are real, and the ghosts of mistakes past are hard to banish. So this Halloween, double-check your HS codes, origin declarations, OGEL conditions, and valuation methods. Because nothing's scarier than the words: "You are under investigation."
