ECPIT5030 - Import procedures: movement certificates lodged in confidence by a trader other than the importer


Traders who wish to withhold from importers or agents information contained in movement certificates, may lodge them at the National Clearance Hub at Salford at the address shown below:

HM Revenue & Customs
National Clearance Hub
Customs House
Furness Quay
Salford
Manchester
M50 3XN

Each movement certificate clearly marked 'LODGED IN CONFIDENCE' is to be given a lodgement number and the person lodging it is to be advised that this number is to be quoted on the entry.

The movement certificate is to be held in the National Clearance Hub and is to be attached to the entry when it becomes available.

The entry is then to be processed in the normal manner. Particular care is to be taken to ensure that unauthorised persons do not gain access to information contained in movement certificates lodged in confidence.
