The new Excise Movement Control System (EMCS), which has been running in the UK since 20^th December 2010, has given e-customs Limited, the leading web based customs clearance system provider, a clear market-leading role in the handling of UK EMCS messages.

Since the implementation of EMCS e-customs Ltd have successfully processed over 30% of all UK EMCS messages.

Siobhán MacLennan, HMRC Specialist, for Chivas Brothers said, “We have used the services of e-Customs for some years; this most recent development has been implemented with the same precision and attention to detail as we have come to expect from this organisation. By providing a user-friendly and manageable system, e-Customs alleviated many of the concerns we had about such a huge development in the excise industry. The switch from paper to electronic declarations was a major undertaking for all involved and e-Customs were a valuable source of information and support during the development stages. The smooth implementation of EMCS has only strengthened our confidence in e-Customs.”

EMCS (Excise Movement and Control System) is a computerised system for monitoring movements of excise goods under suspension of excise duty within the EU. Use of EMCS became compulsory throughout the EU from 1 January.
