Procedure for reporting incidents during transit

Learn more about procedures when incidents occur during movements of goods.

The incident should be reported to Swedish Customs via our online service. The report can be filed by the declarant, carrier or another operator.

Provide the following information about the incident:

  • MRN for the current transit movement
  • Name and contact information of the reporter
  • Place of the incident
  • Type of incident.

Once the incident is reported, the transport may not continue until the customs office for incident reporting has issued a decision.

The customs office for incident reporting will receive the information, make a decision on how to handle it, and then reply to the reporter.

A message regarding the incident is sent to the customs office of departure.

The customs office of departure will send information about the incident to involved customs offices where the transit has not yet been presented, and to the declarant.

Involved customs offices and the declarant receive information about the incident.
