Frequently Asked Questions
HMRC has opened a case - what should I do now?
Do not panic. With the FLS Customs Portal in place, you can instantly search and retrieve any clearance by MRN, PO number, customer or date. You can then download or share the documents as required. The portal’s Search and Store function ensures all entries are archived in a compliance-ready format, so you are always prepared for an HMRC enquiry or audit.
How long must I keep customs records and entries?
HMRC requires you to retain all customs documents for at least six years, as they may audit records from previous years. The FLS Customs Portal allows you to store all entries securely for as long as you need and retrieve them easily when requested.
What if my business moves goods by multiple modes such as road, sea and air?
The FLS Customs Portal supports multimodal clearance across all transport types. All declarations are processed and synced to the portal, giving you one searchable archive regardless of the mode of transport used.
How does instant sync work?
Once FLS processes a declaration or clearance, it is immediately added to your portal dashboard. There is no delay, meaning you always have access to the most up-to-date documents without having to contact freight or customs partners.
Do I have to use the same freight forwarder for customs?
No. Many businesses believe customs must be handled by their freight operator, but that is not the case. With FLS, customs processing and record keeping are managed independently, giving you full control through the portal even if you use multiple transport providers.
Does the Customs Portal link to my existing FLS services?
Yes. If you also use FLS for transport, the Customs Portal integrates seamlessly with our Connect Portal, giving you one dashboard for both freight and customs activity.
Does FLS offer help with audits or consultancy?
Yes. FLS offers consultancy services to review your current customs processes, identify gaps and prepare you for potential HMRC audits. The Customs Portal supports this by providing a digital foundation for compliance, governance and audit readiness.
