Most systems make you learn their way of working, slow you down and spread one job across several tools. Newer platforms give it a fresh look, but your team is still filling the gaps by hand.
At DutyDeclared, we’ve built a better way.

What is customs declaration software?
Customs declaration software helps you prepare, check and submit customs declarations to HMRC. DutyDeclared handles the whole process in one platform, from extracting details from your documents to following HMRC’s response after submission.
Does DutyDeclared submit declarations directly to HMRC?
Yes. Declarations are filed directly with HMRC’s Customs Declaration Service (CDS). Each response is recorded against the declaration, so you can see whether it has been submitted, accepted or cleared.
Which documents can I upload?
You can upload commercial invoices, packing lists and transport documents. DutyDeclared extracts the key details, such as goods, values and parties, into a draft declaration for you to review.
How do I know my declaration is accurate?
Each extracted field is linked to the document it came from, and codes and requirements are checked before you submit. You or your representative remain responsible for what’s declared and you’ll see exactly what’s being declared before anything is filed.
Who is DutyDeclared for?
It’s for customs brokers and advisory practices, freight forwarders, and UK importers and exporters, whether they file in-house or outsource.
How long does it take to get started?
There’s no project plan and no training schedule. Your team can be onboarded in days, not months.
Can I try DutyDeclared for free?
Yes. You get 10 free entries every month, with no implementation fee and no mandatory demo. You can log in and run a real declaration before committing to anything.
Is DutyDeclared recognised by HMRC?
Yes. DutyDeclared is recognised by HMRC and we were winners at the Tolley’s Taxation Awards 2025.
