Import procedures (joining of both systems in all MS = end 2008) ICS = e-communication between CO entry and CO import (2007)AIS = e-import declaration (2008) must be followed by modules

for all import customs procedures!! Common risk profiles

RIF = exchange of national risk profiles between MS (2009) Database of Authorised Economic Operators (AEO)

Distributed solution (2008) Single e-Access Point for transmission of e-CD through EU (2009) Common Customs Information Portal Project & Single Window (2009)

Centralised Customs Clearance & AIS (2009)


Export Control System= ECS

e-Communication between COoExp and COoExtinformation on exported goods before exit = pre-departure decl.based on messages and conditions used in NCTS (COoDep/COoDst)

Similar national applications for NCTS and ECSe-certificate of exit of goods from EU for COoExp

Goods is followed by Export Accompanying Document (same management for EAD and SAD3)

National applications in all MSECS on national and international levelfirst phase of ECS/AESCommercial applications OR Customs application

Step-by-step implementation in all MS (1 year)Beginning from 3. Q. 2006End by middle 2007


Automated Export System=AES

e-Export declaration for all customs procedures

second phase of ECS/AES e-certificate of exit of goods from EU for COoExp & Exporter

Voluntary (by new CC) Obligatory e-ECD (with e-signature)

National AES application will be connected with ECS appl.Based on NCTS platform

Import Control System=ICS

e-communication of COoEntry and COoImport (ICS)information on import case before the entry of goods into EU

territory = pre-arrival declarationbased on messages and conditions used in NCTS similar national applications for NCTS and ICSimplementation of ICS on national / international level

Goods is announced before entry on EU territory by Importer (paper or electronic pre-arrival declaration)

National applications in all MSFirst phase of ICS/AISCommercial applications OR Customs Applications

Step-by-step implementation in all MS (1 year)Beginning from 1. Q. 2007End by 2.Q.2008


Automated Import System = AIS

e-Communication between Importer and COoImport

e-Import declaration for all customs proceduresmust be followed by modules for all import customs procedures

= national task & responsibility!!based on messages and conditions used in NCTS (Declarant -

COoImport)with e-signature and encrypted messages (both ways T ↔ C)implementation of AIS at national levelnecessary = amendment of CCIP (data elements of e-ICD, …)

Voluntary (by new CC) Obligatory e-ECD (with e-signature)

National AIS application could be connected with ICS application or with Centralised Clearance Application (based on NCTS platform)

Step-by-step implementation in all MS (by the end of 2008)


Authorised Economic Operator

Common database of AEO status holders among all MSaccessible for all CO in all MS via distributed database (à la “VIES”

& “NCTS”) from 2.Q. 2007 until 2.Q. 2008

Evidence of persons complying with security standards & criteria

Evidence of persons complying with simplified procedures standards & criteria

Mutually accepted authorisation of AEO among all CO and MS

Unified and common standards, criteria and analysis specified in „security“ amendment of Code (OJ 648/2005 5/2005) and „security“ amendment of CCIP (OJ 5-6/2006)

Single e-Access Point = SEAP

Single Electronic Access Point for submission of customs declaration (CD):enable to submit CD between MS via splitting the place of

submission of e-CD and the place of acceptance & processing of e-CD & release of goods into customs procedure

Declarant can choose the most suitable way for submission of e-CD from offered SEAP (web. interface, web. application, EDI application, etc.)

standardised conditions for submission of e-CD in all MS = common communication between SEAP and relevant MS (amendment to CCIP)

New regulations are not necessary for implementation, but, harmonisation of common communication with SEAP and data standardisation of CD are necessary

from 1.Q. 2008 by end 2009

Centralised Customs Clearance

Splitting to the place of acceptance of Customs declaration and to the place of submission of goods and their control (national & international level)

Necessary co-operation of concerned Customs Offices and concerned Customs Administrations

When the agreement of both COs is reached the authorisation could be issued (simplified procedure of authorisation for AEO status holder)

Solution for splitting of 25% of collected duty between 2 MS is not found for the time being

Necessary change of EU legislation (Art. 201 CCIP)
