Step 1: Prepare the Necessary Information
Before you start the registration process, gather the following information:
Company Details: Legal name, address, and registration number.
VAT Registration Number: If applicable.
Details of Goods: A detailed description of the goods you intend to move through the Green Lane.
Supply Chain Information: Information about your supply chain, including suppliers and customers, to demonstrate that your goods are not at risk of entering the EU single market.
Step 2: Access the UKIMS Registration Portal

Locate the UKIMS registration portal link, which will take you to the online registration form.
Step 3: Complete the Online Registration Form
Fill Out the Form: Enter all required details about your business, including company information, VAT number, and details about the goods you will be moving.
Supply Chain Information: Provide detailed information about your supply chain, emphasising how the goods are intended for the Northern Ireland market and are not at risk of entering the EU.
Step 4: Submit Supporting Documents
Upload any required supporting documents, such as proof of business registration, supply chain agreements, or other relevant certifications.
Ensure all documents are accurate and up-to-date to avoid delays in processing your registration.
Step 5: Review and Submit
Carefully review all the information you have entered to ensure accuracy.
Submit the completed form and documents through the online portal.
