Producing and submitting your Intrastat declaration
To produce an Intrastat declaration you first generate the Intrastat entries; Sage 200 collects the details of all transactions for the stated period so that you can review and work with them.
You then produce a draft Intrastat declaration from which you can review your figures and make any necessary amendments. To amend your Intrastat values you can:
- Edit the details of existing entries.
- Add entries.
- Delete entries.
- Apply a bulk change to a selected group of entries. You can change the:
- Intrastat commodity code assigned entries.
- Intrastat terms of delivery code.
- Intrastat nature of transaction code.
- Country of origin.
When you are happy that your figures reflect the sales and / or purchases you have made over the period being declared you can generate your final Intrastat declaration.
Remember - once you have produced an Intrastat declaration for a given period:
- You cannot amend any of the entries from that file.
- You cannot regenerate the Intrastat file.
Businesses in the Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland with exports above the dispatch threshold must include certain details to their Intrastat dispatch reports from 1 January 2022. For more information, see these articles:
