Duty management services help businesses manage customs duty liability, declarations, and compliance when operating customs special procedures such as customs warehousing and inward processing. In many cases, a compliant duty management system is a mandatory HMRC requirement, as businesses must accurately track goods, duty exposure, and stock movements while maintaining proper records.
For many businesses, the ongoing administration of customs special procedures can become complex and resource intensive. Effective customs management services often require dedicated record keeping, reporting, and specialist systems to ensure compliance with HMRC requirements. Without the right customs support, businesses can struggle to maintain these procedures and may risk losing the benefits they provide.
BKR’s duty management services offer a practical solution for businesses looking to simplify customs management, strengthen customs compliance support, and reduce the burden of operating special procedures. Our team supports clients with customs declaration support, import and export declaration support, and the day-to-day management of procedures, helping businesses achieve duty saving on imports while keeping operations compliant and efficient.
At BKR, we believe the benefits of customs special procedures should not be limited to businesses with in-house customs specialists or expensive software. Our aim is to simplify customs management by providing expert customs support to help businesses apply for, implement, and maintain customs special procedures such as customs warehousing and inward processing. This allows more businesses to access the benefits of specialist customs authorisations without taking on the full administrative burden internally.
In many cases, obtaining a customs special procedure authorisation is only the first step. Ongoing administration, record keeping, reporting, and the use of a reliable duty management system are often needed to maintain compliance and keep the procedure operating effectively. BKR supports clients through the full process, helping to simplify customs processes and reduce the pressure on internal teams.
Our duty management services cover the full end-to-end journey, whatever procedure your business requires support with. This includes the initial application to HMRC, daily maintenance, customs declaration support, monthly reporting, and ongoing account management. Through this approach, we provide practical customs compliance support that helps businesses operate efficiently, remain compliant, and maximise duty saving on imports.
Effective duty management goes beyond compliance, it’s about creating efficient, reliable processes that support your wider supply chain. At BKR, we deliver integrated solutions that reduce administrative burden, strengthen compliance, and ensure your customs procedures are efficient, scalable, and aligned with your business goals.

Operations and Procedural Management
BKR provides a bespoke operational package, allowing your business to fully or partially outsource customs management to our experienced team. This includes outsourced customs brokerage, outsourced record keeping, and practical customs support to help ensure both operational efficiency and compliance.
We can also integrate with third-party software partners or align with your existing systems to support effective procedural management, while providing ongoing record keeping, compliance audits, access to specialist advice, and dedicated account management. This approach helps simplify customs processes, strengthen customs compliance support, and improve the day-to-day operation of customs special procedures.
IT Integration
Many businesses face challenges in maintaining compliant systems and ensuring they can effectively audit their customs activities. Our duty management services work closely with your internal systems and IT team to integrate relevant data flows into our platform.
This helps ensure that information is accurate, complete, and suitable for customs declaration support, customs reporting, and wider compliance purposes, while reducing the burden of internal administration.
