CDS Release 5.2.1 - 30th July 2026 - Updated Guidance for traders
There will be a minor CDS Release on the 30th July 2026. This release (R5.2.1) will not involve any system downtime.
The attached document (see below) lists the changes that may affect declarations. Please familiarise yourself with these changes and ensure that any pre-lodged declarations due to arrive on or after the 30th July 2026 are amended to ensure that declarations are not rejected upon arrival.
Update 14/07/2026
A feature introduced in Release 5.2.0 that prevented certain Authorisation Types from being declared on Northern Ireland (NI) declarations will be reverted.
This feature was Item 7 in the release 5.2.0 guidance document and will no longer apply after the 30th July.
Following the reversion of this feature, the system behaviour will return to its pre-4th July state.
Authorisation Type Code ‘MIB’ will not be allowed on export declarations from Northern Ireland where AI Code ‘NIEXP’ has been declared.
If Authorisation Type Code ‘MIB’ is declared in DE 3/39 and ‘NIEXP’ is declared in DE 2/2, the declaration will be rejected
