The State Customs Service has updated methodological recommendations for business entities on filling out declarations for goods under the joint transit procedure.
On May 1, 2023, the State Customs Service published updated methodological recommendations for filling out a customs declaration for goods when they are placed in the customs transit regime under the terms of the Convention on the Common Transit Procedure. The document is posted in the subsection "Methodical and educational materials" of the section "Common transit (NCTS)" on the official website of the State Customs Service https://bit.ly/42uYKc3
Thus, the methodological recommendations detail the requirements for entering security data into the transit declaration, which can, among other things, be used instead of the ENS when importing goods into the territory of EU member states. Security data, which are additionally included in the transit declaration, are, in particular:
• approximate date and time of arrival at the transit customs,
• place of loading,
• indicator of special circumstances,
• information on the method of payment for transportation costs,
• place of unloading,
• route,
• carrier, sender and recipient data.
At the same time, the country of registration and the entity's identification number (TIN) OR its name and address are filled in the security data for the carrier, sender and recipient.
Also, in the updated methodological recommendations, the requirements for entering information about vehicles when moving goods by rail are detailed. Thus, in railway transportation, the train number can be used as a transport identifier (in the case of declaring in one declaration all wagons of the rolling stock of the train) or the numbers of railway wagons/platforms (in the case of declaring each separate railway wagon or platform in a separate declaration when forming the rolling stock from deliveries different subjects of the procedure)
