Safety & Security

GB Entry Summary Declarations (ENS)

Prepare, validate and submit Entry Summary Declarations (ENS) through FreightCode,
bringing shipment, goods, party and transport information together for pre-arrival safety and security processing.

What it does

An Entry Summary Declaration provides advance safety and security information for goods entering Great Britain. FreightCode supports the declaration data, validation, submission, amendments and subsequent HMRC notifications within the same operational environment.

Operational value

ENS can be handled alongside the customs movement rather than through a separate process. Relevant shipment information can be reused where appropriate, validation problems can be identified before submission, and the resulting status and notifications remain attached to the movement record.
