Royal Mail Windsor Framework Updates
The following changes have been made for Royal Mail shipments sent from Great Britain to Northern Ireland (addresses with a GB country code and postcode beginning BT):
- The shipment declaredValue must equal the sum of the item values within the shipment. The declaredValue cannot be less than or greater than the sum of the item values.
- For B2B shipments where a pre-registration number with pre-registration type UKIMS is provided, previous logic that treated Item HS Code as optional has been removed. Royal Mail's standard reference data will now be used, which validates Item HS Code as mandatory for B2B shipments from GB to NI with a UKIMS number. The table below lists the fields that are mandatory for all B2B shipments from GB to NI, this is in addition to the standard mandatory fields in the Intelligent Shipper create shipment request from the 24th February 2024. Any shipments missing the required information will fail validation, so we recommend reviewing your data ahead of this date.
For full details, please see the Royal Mail validation rules.
