Customs paperwork information intake

This is a shipment-information collection template, not an official government form or customs declaration. It does not submit information to customs.

Include your country code.

This template runs as a straight sequence — no branching rules.

Who this template is for

Customs Declaration Information Form is built for carriers, couriers and operations teams who need to record consignment detail and proof at each handover.

  • Carriers, couriers and operations teams working in logistics & field ops.
  • Teams who need to record consignment detail and proof at each handover without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing disputes with no record of what was collected or delivered with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are shippers, drivers and warehouse staff — the form asks them 31 questions across 3 screens.
  • Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of disputes with no record of what was collected or delivered and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 20 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
  • It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
  • It records a signature you can keep as proof of agreement.
  • It pins the request to a specific date.
  • It captures a full postal address.
  • It captures a numeric value you can filter and sort on.
  • Conditional logic hides 3 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.

Logic and conditions blueprint

  • Features conditional validation: if “Shipment purpose” is Return or repair, “Original shipment and return or repair references” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Are any goods subject to permit or restriction review?” is Yes or unsure, “Goods and supporting authorization references for review” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Are any declared details still unconfirmed?” is Yes, “Unconfirmed information and responsible reviewer” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • All 3 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form

Is this an official customs declaration?

No. It only collects shipment details a shipper needs to prepare customs paperwork and does not file anything with a government authority.

Will it calculate duties or select tariff codes?

No. Classification, valuation, admissibility, and duty questions require an appropriate authoritative or professional review.

Can it replace a commercial invoice?

No. It collects useful source information, but invoices and other required documents must be prepared in the appropriate format.

Does completing this book transport?

No. Courier Booking Form collects a separate transport request, which still needs carrier acceptance and confirmation.
