HMRC has announced that the new Get Customs Data for Import and Export Declarations Service is now available from Thursday, 13th November 2025.
This reporting service is free to use and is based on the user’s import and export data from the Customs Declaration Service. They are set out in a similar way to Management Support System (MSS) reports.
These reports can help the user to:
- check that Customs declarations are accurate
- support audits or investigations
- review declarations that have been made on behalf of the user
- monitor import and export activity over time
The reports themselves are not yet perfect. User testing has determined some service restrictions:
The key findings are:
• Missing XI EORI data
• Inability to Search Multiple EORIs
• Data Formatting issues (to reflect existing report formatting)
HMRC have advised that fixes and solutions have been identified for these findings and are scheduled for implementation in due course.
Until these fixes are implemented, the above information will not be available.
Guidelines on how to access the reports and what to expect on the downloads can be found at the link below:
Get customs data for import and export declarations - GOV.UK
Reports can be requested on a per-month basis, and it is anticipated that service speeds will be affected at peak times.
