Personal information when submitting an application
Swedish Customs has a duty to make a decision when someone submits an application concerning the application of customs legislation. We also monitor the decision through supervision, audit and other analysis and control activities.
Why Swedish Customs processes your data
Swedish Customs processes personal data when you submit an application to us. The processing of personal data is necessary for us to fulfil our obligations as a customs authority.
Who will receive the personal data?
- Your personal data will be received by different parties depending on the application you submit.
- If your application involves more than one Member State, the customs authorities of all Member States concerned will have access to the personal data.
- If your application is to be registered in the Single European Customs Decision System, the European Commission will have access to the personal data.
- If you consent to publication by posting on the Swedish Customs' website, everyone will be able to access the published data.
- If the authorisation assessment means that Swedish Customs must make an assessment of the company's solvency, a credit ratings company will receive personal data.
- If the authorisation assessment means that Swedish Customs must make an assessment of the company's compliance with legislation, the Swedish Police Authority will receive personal data.
The Swedish Customs' law enforcement activities may receive personal data.
Legal basis and purpose
Swedish Customs processes personal data in order to:
- Fulfil the requirements of customs legislation on the exchange and storage of information on an application or decision.
- Check that the conditions of the application are fulfilled.
- Determine the amount of duty to be paid or refunded in cases where you refer to an authorisation.
- Monitor the conditions and criteria to be met by the holder of a decision, as well as the fulfilment of the obligations arising from the decision.
- Organising, allocating and monitoring the activities of Swedish Customs.
Swedish Customs is the data controller for the processing of personal data in connection with registrations for activities organised by Swedish Customs. Swedish Customs has organisation number 202100-0969.
Processing of personal data is thus necessary to fulfil the legal obligations of Swedish Customs.
Deletion
Swedish Customs will delete your data and documents no later than six years after the end of the calendar year in which the data or documents were first processed. Deletion is regulated in the Act (2001:185) on the processing of data in the activities of Swedish Customs, Chapter 2, Section 10.
