A new procedure in three steps

The new export process consists of data submission in three steps: export declaration, presentation of goods at the office of exit and exit notification of goods.

• Step 1 – Export declaration
  The declarant draws up a standard customs declaration and sends the customs declaration digitally to Swedish Customs in message IE515 to release the goods into the export customs procedure.
• Step 2 – Presentation of goods to the office of exit
  When the goods arrive at the place of exit, the carrier submits an exit notification for the goods to the customs office of exit in message IE507. The notification refers to the MRN of the customs declaration.
• Step 3 – Exit notification of goods
  When the goods have left the customs territory of the EU, the carrier must notify the customs office of exit that the goods have been removed. This is done with message IE590.

Roles

• Step 1 – Declarant. The declarant is either the exporter or a representative hired by the exporter. The representative acts on behalf of the declarant.
• Step 2 – Carrier or representative of the carrier. The legislation does not specify who is responsible for submitting the exit notification to the customs office of exit. Depending on the location (e.g., port, airport, railway terminal, road border), the operator assuming this responsibility may vary.
• Step 3 – The carrier or the carrier’s representative is responsible for submitting the exit notification when the goods have left the customs territory of the Union.
