The other four

Four more answers before the goods move.

/calc/ni-route

NI route — UKIMS / not-at-risk signal

GB→NI Windsor Framework decision tree. Green lane, red lane, UKIMS authorisation criteria and the evidence chain HMRC expects.

/calc/deferment-strategy

GB vs NI deferment + PVA cashflow

Should we open a duty deferment account, run PVA, or hybrid? The decision changes for GB vs NI movements — this calculator shows both.

/calc/incoterms-risk

Incoterms risk + NI responsibility

DDP / EXW / FCA / DAP / C-terms — who pays the duty, who clears, who carries the risk. With NI-specific responsibility flags.

/calc/digital-border-readiness

EORI / GVMS / GMR readiness

Pre-shipment checklist: EORI, commodity data, S&S declaration, GVMS / GMR, NI evidence + the broker API workflow you need wired.

All four are wired with the same lead-capture pattern — drop your email after any result.

FAQ

Is FreightSnap a customs filing system?
No. FreightSnap is the layer BEFORE customs filing — the decision intelligence that tells you the cheapest compliant route + cashflow before you commit. Pair it with a CDS filing system (your broker or in-house) for the actual submission.
Does FreightSnap give me customs advice?
No. FreightSnap is decision support, not customs advice. Operator stays accountable for the declaration. For regulated advice, speak to your customs broker or HMRC.
Is UKIMS the same as not-at-risk?
Closely related but not identical. UKIMS is the authorisation scheme operators apply for. Not-at-risk is the status a movement can have under Windsor Framework. UKIMS authorisation makes claiming not-at-risk easier. The NI-route calculator walks both.
Where does my email + result go?
Your result is sent to your inbox. Your details land in the BRG intelligence layer (Supabase, RLS-protected) so we can follow up with a sector plan. We never share or sell your data. Consent is explicit and tied to the marketing opt-in box.
How fresh are the source rules?
Source registry checked weekly via a CI job that pings GOV.UK + HMRC pages. When something changes, the affected calculator gets updated within 48 hours and a "what changed" note ships on the AIFreight LinkedIn.
