MANAGED POST-ENTRY QUALITY CONTROL

Total operational visibility for your brokerage.

Running a customs brokerage means processing thousands of declarations under tight deadlines. Manual post-entry checks take time, experienced staff is scarce, and critical compliance errors often go unnoticed across high-volume accounts.

NODOS Customs Assurance provides independent brokers with a managed, continuous quality-control capability. We analyze your post-entry declarations to identify recurring errors, protect your compliance standing, and help you demonstrate quality to your clients.

The monthly price covers the complete assurance cycle: declarations and supporting documents are reviewed against the applicable customs controls, findings and exceptions are professionally verified, and the results are consolidated into compliance KPIs, recurring issues, trends and improvement priorities.

The monthly management review then focuses on what needs attention and whether previous corrective actions are improving performance.

Everything you need to know about how NODOS Customs Assurance fits into your operational workflow.

How do I know whether our customs declarations are being done correctly?

Our Continuous Customs Assurance service provides a consistent second line of defence. We systematically test your declarations and supporting documents against defined customs controls, giving you clear visibility into where controls are working, where issues exist, and where evidence is missing.

What does the assurance service actually review?

We review key customs risk areas, including valuation, origin, preferential origin, licences and measures, commercial policy, and overall declaration quality. The underlying control framework is adaptable and evolves as your operational risks or regulatory requirements change.

Why do I need post-entry assurance if Customs already cleared the goods?

Clearance simply means the goods were released at the border; it does not mean every element of the declaration was verified by customs authorities. Post-entry assurance identifies errors and recurring control weaknesses internally before they lead to audits, penalties, or financial exposure.

Is AI making customs decisions for our business?

No. We use advanced technology to automate data processing and identify risk exceptions, but human customs professionals verify every finding and apply expert judgement. The technology enhances audit speed and accuracy—it does not replace expert oversight.

What happens if the supporting documents don't prove whether an entry is correct?

We never classify uncertainty as a definitive error. Our process clearly distinguishes between a confirmed compliance issue and an evidence gap. This ensures you know exactly which entries need technical correction and which simply require better document collection.

What deliverables will we actually receive each month?

You receive a comprehensive view of your customs performance: compliance KPIs, verified findings, recurring issue analysis, and strategic improvement priorities. Through regular management reviews, you can also track whether your corrective actions are successfully resolving past errors.

How is our commercial and customs data protected?

All client data is treated as highly confidential. Access is strictly restricted to authorised team members, data is securely segregated, and our entire operational process is fully compliant with GDPR and applicable data protection standards.

How does this service support increasing compliance expectations for customs brokers?

Customs authorities expect brokers to demonstrate that controls actively work, not just that written procedures exist. In the UK, PAS 41201:2026 formalises this by recommending quarterly quality-control audits of submitted declarations. Our managed service provides the repeatable audit process, documented evidence, and trend analysis needed to demonstrate continuous compliance.
