GENERAL INFORMATION
The last phase of the reform of the customs system for the safety of goods in Europe will come into force in June and will involve all sectors: land, maritime and air.
The reform, which began in 2021, provides for the modification of the trans-European Import Control System, with the implementation of Import Control System 2 (ICS2) which allows customs authorities to more promptly identify threats, thanks to an information flow integrated with the data from multiple actors in the logistics chain.
However, following the difficulties encountered in adapting to the system by some Member States, the Commission decided to grant 12 States a derogation from entry into ICS2 until 30 June 2023. Depending on the type of economic operator, the Commission has provided a time window for joining the system, to be requested from the State that issued the operator's EORI code.
But what does ICS2 consist of in detail? The risk analysis of the goods is carried out on the basis of a declaration, the Entry Summary Declaration (ENS), which logistics operators must transmit before arrival, via a single interface called Shared Trader Interface (STI). The ENS are deposited in a centralized European database, the Central Repository (CR), which communicates with the responsible Member State and any Member States involved, in order to achieve optimized risk management. The amount of mandatory data required by ICS2 has also increased compared to the minimum set required by ICS1.
