However, until 31 December 2021 most importers of non-controlled goods from the EU can choose to delay the submission of their customs declarations to HMRC for up to 175 days after import as part of the staged approach to customs controls (SCC).</p><p> </p><p>HMRC’s understanding to date is that overall use of delayed declarations (whether under SCDP or as part of SCC) in 2021 so far has been high.</p><p> </p><p>HMRC is receiving broadly the volume of declarations expected, and where declarations are being delayed, they are typically being submitted well within the 175-day window permitted by staged customs controls.</p><p> </p><p>HMRC continues to monitor declarations closely, as well as supporting traders to prepare for the ending of staged customs controls delayed declarations on 1 January.</p> answering member constituency South East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Lucy Frazer question first answered 23/09/2021 16:15:23 answering member 4517 label Biography information for Lucy Frazer
