You clear thousands of declarations.
How many do you actually audit?

Manual post-entry reviews cap your team's capacity. When sampling is limited, thousands of entries pass through without oversight - exposing your operation to undetected errors and compliance penalties.

Entries processed.

100

Entries reviewed (5%).

Methodology

Methodology

AUDIT FLOW

01

Evidence

Declaration data and available supporting documents are extracted and structured for review.

02

Rule

Each entry is tested against applicable customs controls using structured, repeatable logic.

03

Result

Each control produces a clear result, including where evidence is insufficient to reach a conclusion.

04

Finding

Potential compliance issues, evidence gaps and exceptions are identified for review.

05

Expert Review

Material findings and exceptions are reviewed by a customs professional before they are reported.

06

Action

Validated results feed into priorities, corrective actions and subsequent audit cycles.

Turn your audit programme into evidence.

A good audit should do more than find errors. Each review should leave a clear record of what was tested, what was found, what was corrected and whether the issue happened again.

Over time, this gives you evidence that your customs controls are not just documented — they are actually being used and improved.

Verifiable audit history

Maintain a clear record of declarations reviewed, findings identified and corrective actions taken

Evidence of internal control

Show management and customers how declaration quality is monitored and how recurring issues are addressed.

Support for assurance frameworks

Build documented evidence that can support frameworks such as AEO and PAS 41201, where applicable.

You can. The question is how much of your operation you can review consistently with the time and resources available.
