HOW IT WORKS

Three steps. Zero IT involvement.

A post-clearance audit re-examines declarations that have already cleared. BorderAudit runs one continuously: connect once, and every entry you’ve filed is analysed the way an auditor would test it — before an auditor does.

CONNECT → ANALYSE → EXCEPTIONS
  1. 01 · CONNECT
    Grant access once
    One third-party authorisation on your existing Government Gateway account — the same mechanism accountants use. BorderAudit retrieves your declaration history from HMRC's Trader Records Extract automatically, capturing every report before its 30-day expiry.
  2. 02 · ANALYSE
    Every entry, six risk dimensions
    Every declaration line is analysed across the six risk dimensions a post-clearance audit tests — from classification and valuation to origin and preference — with agreement-specific rules for every active UK trade agreement and preference scheme.
  3. 03 · EXCEPTIONS
    Ranked by value
    Findings surface as exceptions ranked by what they're worth: overpayments ready to reclaim, missed preference, compliance risks to fix. You start with the most valuable line — not page one of a spreadsheet.
THE PLATFORM POSITION

Every entry. Re-audited.

A manual customs review samples a handful of entries once a year. BorderAudit re-audits your entire declaration book — every line, every dimension — and keeps doing it as new declarations land. Errors surface as exceptions when they happen, not when the audit letter arrives.

Around 17% of UK customs declarations contain errors. Some of them cost you duty you can reclaim; some of them are risks you’d rather find before HMRC does. The platform separates the two and ranks both by value.

UNDER THE BONNET

What the automation actually does.

DATA COLLECTION
Automated HMRC retrieval
Direct connection to HMRC's Trader Records Extract (TRE) portal. Historical data is requested in optimised six-month chunks and every report is captured before HMRC's 30-day expiry window closes. No manual downloads, no CSV wrestling.
RISK ENGINE
Six-dimension analysis
Every declaration line is scored across six risk dimensions — classification, valuation, origin and preference among them — against the validation rules of every active UK trade agreement, customs union and preference scheme.
CLASSIFICATION
Outliers, made visible
Visual analytics cluster your commodity codes by tariff chapter and surface the anomalies — a machinery supplier declaring apparel, a code nobody else in your sector uses.
RETURNED GOODS
Returned-goods detection
Indicator-weighted scoring flags likely re-imports — supplier patterns, quantities, unit values, dispatch countries — and surfaces Returned Goods Relief (RGR) candidates for specialist review.
REX VALIDATION
Preference claims, verified
Preference claims over €6,000 are checked against the EU's Registered Exporter (REX) database — catching lapsed or revoked registrations before HMRC does.
RECLAIMS
C285-ready reclaim files
Identified overpayments are packaged into HMRC-ready C285 reclaim files — 91% accepted first time. Overpaid duty is generally reclaimable up to three years from the entry.

Audit automation, answered.

Your Trader Records Extract (TRE) — the declaration data HMRC (His Majesty's Revenue and Customs) already holds about your imports: commodity codes, origin countries, customs values, duty amounts and declaration dates. We never access financial accounts or banking information.
