Guidance: Appendix 21: Import Declaration Category Data Sets

Imported from official source

This Appendix provides a detailed breakdown of the specific data elements needed for each declaration category.

The Appendix is broken into eight parts:

  • Appendix 21A: Declaration Category Data Sets H1
  • Appendix 21B: Declaration Category Data Sets H2
  • Appendix 21C: Declaration Category Data Sets H3
  • Appendix 21D: Declaration Category Data Sets H4
  • Appendix 21E: Declaration Category Data Sets H5
  • Appendix 21F: Declaration Category Data Sets I1 C&F
  • Appendix 21G: Declaration Category Data Sets I1 B&E
  • Appendix 21H: Declaration Category Data Sets H7
  • Appendix 21: Declaration Category Data Sets contains a separate table for each declaration category type, for example H1 data set.

    The data set tables also state whether the data element is mandatory in all cases, optional for the declarant or dependant on the circumstances being declared.

    Each Data Set table identifies the requirements for completion of the appropriate data elements on a customs declaration dependent on the individual declaration category.

    A consolidated set of Notes are provided to assist in reading the data set tables.
