A no-match occurs when information declared on the HMRC Customs Declarations System (CD) and information declared on a Common Health Entry Document for Plants and Plant Produces (CHED-PP) on IPAFFS does not match. Inputting the correct data will ensure that Defra’s Automatic Licence Verification System (ALVS) is able to link declarations to CHED-PPs and facilitate automatic clearance once any checks that are required have taken place.
If any errors are not rectified prior to vessel arrival into the UK, the consignment will be subject to a customs hold until errors are fixed.
