What is an EAD?

An EAD or Export Accompanying Document is an export entry required by the driver before they depart with the freight. It contains an MRN reference & a barcode to serve as proof that the export is admissible. 

Gov.uk further explains, “The Export Accompanying Document contains data valid for the whole of the declaration and for one item of goods.

“The information contained in the Export Accompanying Document shall be based on data derived from the export declaration; where necessary, that information will be amended by the declarant/representative and/or verified by the office of export.”
