What is CDS?
The UK's replacement for CHIEF — the mandatory system for all UK import and export declarations.
The Customs Declaration Service (CDS) is HMRC's modern customs platform, replacing the legacy CHIEF system. All UK imports and exports now require declarations filed through CDS. Non-compliance results in goods being held at the border and significant financial penalties.
Droblet connects directly to HMRC CDS. It drafts the declaration from your documents, offers commodity-code candidates and a duty estimate, lists what the documents could not supply, and files once your declarant has approved.
How it works
From trade document to HMRC clearance.
Upload Trade Document
Commercial invoice, packing list, or bill of lading — Droblet reads every field instantly.
Draft with Gaps
Commodity-code candidates, duty and VAT estimate, and every field the documents could not supply shown as a gap. Procedure, valuation and preference are always for your declarant to confirm.
Approve & File
Your declarant reviews, chooses the code, fills the gaps and approves. Droblet files to HMRC CDS and returns the MRN.
Release & Audit
Track status to clearance. Every change, approval and submission logged with its documents.
Features
Full CDS compliance, end to end.
Import Declarations (C88)
Import declarations drafted from your documents and filed directly to HMRC CDS after approval. Duty and VAT estimated; commodity codes offered as ranked candidates for your declarant to choose.
Export Declarations (EX)
Electronic export declarations submitted to HMRC CDS. Supports standard, simplified, and supplementary declarations.
AI Tariff Classification
Ranked commodity-code candidates with the words each one matched, so the suggestion can be argued with. The declarant chooses; the choice is recorded.
