Declaration Additional Document

CDS12125

DAN Error: Account number is not recognised; or Account is suspended or revoked, or Parties declared on the declaration do not have authority to use account number provided.

This refers to the deferment account number visible in Declaration > Other Details > Additional Document and is either because of the reasons provided, or most commonly because the EORI of the deferment account owner is incorrect in Shipment(s) > Shipment View/Edit > Importer > ID.

Obligation error: obligation rule not met

This can sometimes appear if a user edits or adds an ‘Additional Document’ within the declaration items without properly setting the ‘Import Certificate’ field. In this case the record disappears from the screen but is still sent in the message to customs, please contact support if you have this issue for the record to be manually removed.

This will be fixed in an upcoming version of Bond to prevent this from happening, reference VB-1290.

Classification

CDS40011

Missing additional code:[X***]

This suggests that the stock was receipted with an invalid tax / commodity code combination.

Click ‘Shipment(s)’ tab, bottom (Items) grid click View/Edit > using the ‘Nom Classif ID’ (Commodity Code), check in the https://www.trade-tariff.service.gov.uk/sections ‘Imports’ section for that commodity code what the permitted ‘Excise additional codes' (tax codes) are.

Either the ‘Nom Classif ID', 'TARIC Classif ID’ or 'Classif ID' will need to be amended.

If the message returned is “Missing additional code: [VATZ]” in this scenario ‘VATZ’ needs to be added within Declaration > Shipment > Items > Commodity > Classif ID along with a Classification Type, for example VATZ with classification type ‘TRA’. This must not be used for customs duty payments. It is for use with excise products however.

CDS40013

Invalid nomenclature codes

In this case check Declaration > Shipment > Items > Commodity Nom Classif ID & TARIC Classif ID (combined) is correct by checking the tariff.

CDS40045

Missing document

Indicates that the commodity being submitted requires an entry in the Declaration > Shipment > Items > Additional Document section. Refer to the online tariff, search for the commodity being declared (Nom Classif ID + TARIC Classif ID e.g. 04049021 + 00 = 0404902100), if the declaration is Trade Movement Type ‘IM’ then click the ‘Imports’ tab and look for any ‘Conditions’ which will explain the documents required and their codes. For example 0404902100 veterinary controls shows a condition for document N853.

If a code is mentioned which we don’t have in the system then contact support to have it added. Refer: /wiki/spaces/VSKB/pages/1306099733

This same section of the tariff also mentions the document status codes which are permitted for the document which can be entered into the LPCO Exemption Code field within the ‘Additional Document’ record.

AdditionalDocument

Missing Preference Certificate

This rejection can occur when using a GSP preference and you don’t have U164 / 5 / 6 / 7 listed as an import certificate within the Declaration > Goods Shipment Item > Additional Document section.

If you have N954 listed, this is incorrect and cannot be used for GSP so remove and replace with one of the codes above along with it’s relevant ID.

Alternatively add the document code above in as an additional document.

Known differences between CDS and the UK Trade Tariff: Volume 3 for CDS

Consolidated Workaround Document

nameJune CDS Post CDS 4.1.2 2023 Consolidated Workaround Document Developer.xlsx

To help you better understand and remedy known misalignments between the UK Trade Tariff: Volume 3 for CDS and CDS system behaviour, a comprehensive overview guide has been developed by HMRC.

Created in conjunction with developers to draw upon critical customer insight, the document provides:

  • a register of the known differences between CDS and the UK Trade Tariff: Volume 3 for CDS

  • steps to take (‘workarounds’) when encountering a known difference

  • an estimated resolution date for CDS system alignment.

Whilst the document outlines key CDS to UK Trade Tariff misalignments most likely to cause issues or rejections, it is an inexhaustive list.

Designed to support declarants make a successful submission, misalignments In response to requests from the CDS developer community, HMRC has developed a Consolidated CDS Workaround Document, which you can find attached. This asset aims to provide a consolidated list of all known workarounds applicable to CDS, derived from both the Known Differences document, which this asset has now supplanted, as well as entries from the Known Error Log which currently have workarounds. Where possible, estimated resolution dates have also been included, in order that the user knows for how long each workaround will be applicable.

As this document update is an accompaniment to a ‘dot’ release (3.8.1) it has been used to provide additional entries, as well as modified resolution dates. The next round of resolution packages and KEL fixes will be deployed as part of CDS 3.9.0, dates for which can be found via the CDS External Test Release Roadmap on the CDS Developer Hub.

Please note, the Consolidated Workaround Document is not exhaustive, and will be updated alongside each production release to reflect resolution progress, and any additional entries which may come to light. Designed to support declarants in making successful submissions, the entries listed should not pose a barrier to your clients’ migration.
