We are excited to announce a new partnership with customs clearance specialists Custran, bringing seamless customs declaration workflows directly into the Realm Realtime platform.

This new integration enables users to move effortlessly from booked customs jobs to fully prepared customs declarations, saving time, reducing duplication, and improving accuracy across customs operations.

About Custran

Custran are a digital customs clearance platform and advice service. Their platform allows businesses to prepare and submit customs declarations digitally to HMRC, supported by expert guidance when required.

Their mission is to simplify customs processes while ensuring compliance, clarity, and operational efficiency.

Introducing the Custran Connector

We have developed a new connector with the Custran platform that allows users to instantly trigger a Draft Declaration in Custran directly from a Realm Booked Clearance.

Each draft is automatically pre-filled using the information already captured in Realm, eliminating the need to re-enter duplicate data and ensuring consistency across both systems.

Why This Matters

Customs workflows often require the same information to be entered multiple times across different platforms, increasing administrative workload and the risk of errors.

With the new Custran connector, you can:

Create draft declarations with a single click
Automatically transfer data from Realm to Custran
Reduce manual data entry and duplication
Improve accuracy and compliance

Once a draft declaration is created, users can continue working in the Custran platform to complete the data and submit the declaration directly to HMRC.

Supported Declaration Types

The integration supports all major CDS declaration types, including:

Import declarations
Export declarations
S&SGB declarations

This ensures broad coverage across a wide range of customs scenarios. We also support Irish declarations.

What’s Next

If you are looking for a single, streamlined solution to manage both customs jobs and declarations, speak to our team about the new Custran Connector module within Realm Realtime.

Together, Realm and Custran provide a connected workflow from job creation through to final declaration submission.
