The UK government Guidance CDS Declaration Completion Instructions for Exports in the section called Group 3: Parties part DE 3/1 Exporter, the exporter for exports out of Great Britain (GB) is defined as: "The person who has the power to determine and has determined that the goods are to be taken out of that customs territory. Where the exporter is not established in GB, the exporter must appoint a representative, who is established in GB, to act on their behalf as an indirect representative." For exports out of Northern Ireland (NI) details of the Exporter (name and address and postcode) are to be entered in DE 3/1, (as defined in Article 1(19) of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2018/1063, amending Commission Delegated Regulation 2015/2446). In Article 1(19) exporter is defined in as:
