Northern Ireland: When TSS is not working for you, use US. We'll sort NI trade for YOU :-)
Businesses sending goods between NI and GB Northern Ireland can simplify trade by using our customs support and declaration service. We deal with the TSS for you!
The EU-UK Northern Ireland Protocol came into force, which avoided a hard border with Ireland and therefore requires some new administrative processes. There are no customs controls on either side of the Irish Sea.
