If you are shipping Business to Business (B2B) from Great Britain to Northern Ireland, under the Windsor Framework, you will be required to provide either the sender or recipient's EORI number along with a UKIMS (UK Internal Market Scheme) number.
Information on how to apply for a UKIMS number can be found at https://www.gov.uk/.
Scurri will identify a shipment as B2B if a recipient's company name is provided.
Scurri will check if a recipient EORI and UKIMS number has been provided
- If they are present, they will be supplied to the carrier
- If they are not present, Scurri will take the sender EORI and UKIMS, and they will be supplied to the carrier
- If neither are provided, and the carrier requires them, the shipment will fall into error.
The provided numbers must be either sender or recipient; a combination of both cannot be used.
How to supply EORI and UKIMS
Sender EORI and UKIMS numbers
Sender EORI
The sender EORI number is an existing field that can be set up for a company and/or warehouse.
If the EORI number is the same for all warehouses, adding the EORI at the Company level is sufficient.
Scurri will take the EORI number from the Warehouse associated with the shipment, if the EORI is not available on the Warehouse level it will take the EORI number from the Company level.
To access the field, go to:
- Company level: Setup > Company Setup > Company > Eori number
- Warehouse level: Setup > Company Setup > Warehouse, and select the relevant warehouse(s) > Eori number
A sender EORI number can also be provided through the Scurri API in the "override_sender_eori" field of the "customer_attributes". The Scurri API documentation provides more information.
Sender UKIMS
A new field will be added to Scurri to support adding a Sender UKIMS number.
The field will be called Sender Tax Scheme ID.
This field will be available via the Scurri API, Rules and UI for 30th September.
This section will be updated with more details once the field is available.
