2025 Proposed HMRC Changes

There are two planned changes for HMRC Procedures which will come into effect during 2025

WOWGR Requirements are to be removed from law which will take effect on 3 March 2024

At this time there are no system changes planned for this as HMRC have NOT confirmed how the ATWD submissions will work and whether they can implement this change given the short timescale.

Duty Stamps requirements are to be abolished.

At this time on the date that this comes into force we will have to update a single setting on your system which removes the duty stamp check for orders, it will have no effect on existing stamped / unstamped items which are already on the system.

Removal of Movement Guarantee (Proposed)

At this time no confirmed date has been announce nor has HMRC provided instruction as to the expected requirements for EMCS which requires this field to be transmitted and the current options do not allow for no transmission. We are not expecting HMRC to be in a position to confirm this until it is formally announed

Further details on changes will be posted here during 2025 once the exact changes are known and whether there are any interim changes required, even if both remain within the system their impact on their respective change dates will have minimal effect on operations.
