Fast, Simple & Secure HMRC Import/Export Customs Documentation Handling within SAP

Written by Lewis Marston | January 20,2021

SAP run business? Beat the Brexit paperwork headache.

The arrangements agreed under the Brexit deal have resulted in enormous bureaucratic regulations for UK imports and exports, particularly for recipients in the UK.

Legal compliance, in particular the paperwork requirements, are having a serious impact on supply chain operations, swamping many businesses, delaying goods and impacting sales. Some carriers have already suspended shipments to or from the UK as a result!

Compounding this problem is that for many of the UK recipients (Importers or Consignee’s) this is the first time they have had to deal with customs procedures.

Responding to the paperwork challenge quickly

Being compliant with the necessary audit trail, without the delays of paper administration, is essential to managing workloads efficiently and getting back to business in a post-Brexit world.

Digitalisation and automation of paper processes is the key to success by removing paper bottlenecks, keeping the flow of information in real-time and providing a digital audit trail for compliance.
