Keep your products of animal origin moving
New requirements have come into effect when importing goods from the EU, are you ready?
​
As of 1 January 2022, The Import of Products, Animals, Food and Feed System (IPAFFS), which has replaced EU Traces, must be used to pre-notify the UK border when the following products are being imported from the EU, excepting the Republic of Ireland (ROI):
-
Animal by-products and high risk foods and feed not of animal origin.
-
Products of animal origin (POAO).
-
Composite products.
-
Plants and plant products.
​
Pre-notification must occur at least one working day before the products are due to arrive at the point of entry; once complete a CHED-P or CHED-D is created for the goods.
Border Control Staff then record the outcome of the checks using IPAFFS and a signed copy of the CHED is available for download to continue goods movement.

​
To help ease the strain on importing businesses, P2D have developed an innovative system which simplifies the process and increases the efficiency of submitting pre-notifications into IPAFFS. The P2D system allows users to:
​
-
Bulk upload notifications into IPAFFS, saving time when processing multiple consignments.
-
Automated collection and aggregation of information to create notifications from existing customs and SPS data.
-
Reduce costs required to hire and train staff on new processes.
-
Ensure the accuracy of data to reduce the risk of rejected notifications and the related delays.
​
To find out more about how the system can help you to efficiently create and upload notifications please get in touch.
