What else should you know about this service?

GVMS enables:
• The references in the declarations must be linked so that the person transporting the commodities (eg the driver) has to provide only one reference at the border (Groods Movement Reference or GMR).
• Linking the movement of commodities to declarations allows automatic entry / exit of goods in HMRC systems.
• Automation of the transit office function, marking of the entry of commodities into the NI (Northern Ireland) or GB (Great Britain).
• Notification of the risky outcome of declarations (held or executed) in HMRC systems, which must be sent to the person controlling the commodities by the time they physically arrive in the UK.

"Bunasta" customs declarants can process the documents while the driver is waiting in the office or send them by e-mail, thus speeding up the process. Transit or export declarations are not required for humanitarian consignments, but the GMR code is required.
