commodity_codestring required

UK commodity code. A declarable code is 10 digits; a 6- or 8-digit code is refused with HTTP 400 and declarable_codes — the 10-digit codes beneath it in the UK Trade Tariff — never padded with zeros.

origin_countrystring required

customs_valuenumber required

Goods value in GBP, greater than 0 — a number, or its digits as text. Anything else is refused with 400.

freight_costnumber

Freight cost in GBP, 0 or more (default 0). A negative or non-numeric cost is refused with 400 — it would change the CIF value duty is charged on.
