Entry in the declarant's records (EIDR)

Entry in the declarant's records means that a company is authorised to file customs declaration information in its records. The customs declaration is deemed to have been approved at the time the information is entered in the records.

The entry in the records must contain the same information as a simplified declaration, which means that the commodity code, net mass and country of origin must be included. If you are going to merge goods items, you must do is already done when you make the entry in the records.

When declaring goods by entering them in your records, you must present the goods for release to Swedish Customs. Among other things, the notification must contain a description of the goods and the procedure code.

A notification must be made for each entry in the records. Each entry must be followed by a notification and they must be made in immediate succession. This means that a notification only may refer back to one entry. A notification can have up to 999 goods items.

After the goods have been released, you must submit a supplementary declaration to Swedish Customs within the time limit specified in the authorisation (EIR).

The supplementary declaration must supplement the information already entered in the entry in the records. The information must therefore be consistent between the two stages.

Authorisation for entry in the declarant’s records

You need an authorisation to submit your customs declaration by entering the information in the declarant's records.

If you currently use EIDR for imports, you need to review the information in your authorisation. Ensure that the authorisation includes the codes that you need to use. Procedures that may apply in the context of imports include:

  • 40 (Release into free circulation)
  • 44 (End-use)
  • 51 (Inward processing)
  • 61 (Re-export)

If you no longer need your authorisation for EIDR for import, or if you need to amend your information, you can request an amendment or revoke your authorisation in the Customs Decisions System (CDS).
