Hi Suma

1. Customs Documents are normally used for Comliance Management Area like SPL Check, Embargo Check ,License Determination at R/3 Sales order or Delivery level using the master data (Customer,Material) which were replicated from R/3 Documents
2. Custom Declaration Documents are used to support the Import Export Process such as

• Triggering required communication to Custom Authorities like SED (Shipper's Export Declaration),which are country and transaction specific.
• Helping Logistics Process like Print out copy of B/L (Customs Bills of Lading)
• Calculation of Custom Duty

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Thanks

Akhil..
