Utility from the UK tariff team for downloading Customs Declaration Service files; archived.
What it does
A Python utility from the Online Trade Tariff team that downloads tariff files from the Secure Data Exchange Service, parses the XML into XLSX workbooks and e-mails them to stakeholders from a scheduled CircleCI job. It needs Python, AWS access and secrets for the CDS API that only the team can supply. The repository was archived in February 2026 and names no licence.
