    Hi Chris

    Sadly shipping GB to NI has become a beaurocratic nightnmare as anyne involved will tell you. The consignee needs an NI (XI) EORI. You need to register the movement with TSS - your shipper will normally do this for you but its important they file BOTH parts not just the pre entry. Also the CI needs to be corectly formatted in order to file the TSS. If that isnt enough you may also wish to register for UKIMS to avoid having to complete a full custms declaration!

    We currently ship GB to NI 2-3 times a week so feel free to get in touch if you need further help.
