Export Declaration / EAD / EX1
Category: Customs
Also searched as: EAD EX1 export declaration
Definition (plain English)
Export customs declaration evidence used to show goods were declared for export and released from the origin customs system.
Why it matters commercially
Export declaration details support VAT zero-rating, export compliance, departure evidence, and document consistency with the shipment.
Example
A seller needed EX1 evidence before finance accepted the export sale as VAT zero-rated.
Common mistake
Treating export declaration proof as optional admin while invoice, commodity code, exporter, and departure evidence still need to match.
