Challenge
A UK parcel delivery provider sought to enhance its compliance posture by transitioning from its current 5% sample checks to a comprehensive 100% audit of all export and import parcels.
These meticulous checks aimed to thoroughly scrutinize parcel descriptions, verify declared Harmonized System (HS) codes, validate weights and values, confirm origins, and ensure adherence to prohibited item lists.
The objective was to detect any discrepancies or compliance deviations and proactively address them to minimize risks and safeguard the company’s reputation.
