Report

Import record review

A time-boxed reading of a defined set of import entries: procedure codes, supporting documents, and the trail from invoice to declaration.

Ask about this work

An import record review is closer to reading a set of papers than to drawing a year of charts. We agree how many lines we will open, which supporting documents you can still find, and what question you actually need answered — a broker handover, a board query, or a period that simply feels untidy.

The output is a findings note. It names declaration references, says what was present and what was not, and lists questions worth taking back to the agent who lodged the entry. It is not a certificate of compliance and it is not a substitute for advice from a solicitor where duty is in dispute.

Who it is for

Companies facing an internal audit, a broker change, or a period they no longer trust.

What you receive

A written findings note with sampled lines, document gaps, and suggested questions for your broker or freight agent.

Scope

A named date range and a sample size agreed in advance. We do not review every line in a high-volume year unless that is the brief.

Who prepares it

A reviewer at System Fieldpoint, Allerton.

Time

Two to four weeks depending on how documents arrive.
