National customs authorities shall provide their national statistical authorities without delay and at the latest during the month following the month the customs declarations were accepted or were subject to decisions by customs pertaining to them, with the records on imports and exports from customs declarations lodged with them.
2. With effect from the date of implementation of the mechanism for mutual data exchange by electronic means pursuant to Article 7(2) of Regulation (EC) No 471/2009, customs authorities shall provide daily copies of the data from customs declarations lodged with them to the customs authority of the Member State indicated on the record as:
|

|
(b) |
the Member State of actual export, on export. |
The customs authority in the Member State of destination, on import, and the Member State of actual export, on export, shall forward the import and export records from these customs declarations without delay, and at the latest during the month following the month the customs declarations were accepted or were subject to decisions by customs pertaining to them, to their national statistical authorities.
3. The customs authorities shall provide the national statistical authorities with revised records on imports and exports where statistical data already provided are amended or changed.
