EMCS availability update

An update from HMRC on validation in EMCS.

We are aware that the EMCS is not currently accepting the option ‘Guarantor not required for qualifying UK to UK movements’ in Box 11a of the electronic Administrative Document (eAD). This is not being accepted where a UK warehousekeeper is dispatching excise duty suspended goods (with an excise product code other than B000, W200 or W300) to another UK warehouse.

As a temporary fix, the ‘Guarantor not required for qualifying UK to UK movements’ option should not be used at this time. You should select the ‘Consignor’ option in Box 11a of the eAD. You will have the option to enter your approval number in Box 12a. If you leave Box 12a blank, then you should complete the name and address fields in Boxes 12c to 12f.
