London Tech Week 2026 is officially underway. 🚀
As the biggest week in UK tech shapes the future of digital trade, we chose today to step out of stealth mode.
Meet the HC Customs Compliance Portal — the UK's first automated post-clearance compliance platform built specifically for importers and exporters.
The Compliance Gap We Are Solving:
UK businesses carry 100% of the legal liability for every customs declaration made on their behalf. Yet, the vast majority have zero structured visibility over what is actually being filed to HMRC. No automated reconciliation. No continuous audit trail.
The Reality of UK Trade Compliance:
📊 87% of HMRC customs audits uncover irregularities.
⏱️ HMRC has a strict 4-year window to look back and raise clawback demands.
📉 Most businesses only find out there is a structural flaw when the penalty letter arrives.
HC Customs changes that completely by connecting directly to HMRC's Customs Declaration Service (CDS) via secure OAuth2 to pull, reconcile, and risk-score every single MRN on your record.
Automated Compliance Built for the Real World:
💰 Duty Recovery: Automatically scan your full import history to pinpoint every single C285 overpayment claim you are legally owed.
🛡️ Audit Defence: Generate comprehensive, HMRC-ready evidence packs on demand—long before an auditor ever knocks.
⏳ IP/OP Tracking: Manage Inward and Outward Processing Relief in real-time with proactive, automated deadline alerts.
🔍 CCI Reconciliation: Instantly match your original Clearance Instructions against what your broker actually declared to HMRC.
This isn't another passive dashboard or basic reporting tool. This is absolute control, commercial certainty, and compliance—finally automated.
