CONVENTION ON A COMMON TRANSIT PROCEDURE
THE REPUBLIC OF AUSTRIA, THE REPUBLIC OF FINLAND, THE REPUBLIC OF ICELAND, THE KINGDOM OF NORWAY, THE KINGDOM OF SWEDEN, THE SWISS CONFEDERATION,
hereinafter called the EFTA countries,
THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC COMMUNITY,
hereinafter called the Community,
CONSIDERING the Free Trade Agreements between the Community and each of the EFTA countries,
CONSIDERING the Joint Declaration calling for the creation of a European economic space, adopted by Ministers of the EFTA countries and the Member States of the Community and the Commission of the European Communities in Luxembourg on 9 April 1984, especially with regard to simplification of border formalities and rules of origin,
CONSIDERING the Convention on the simplification of formalities in trade in goods, concluded between the EFTA countries and the Community, introducing a single administrative document for use in such trade,
CONSIDERING that the use of this single document within the framework of a common transit procedure for the carriage of goods between the Community and the EFTA countries and between the EFTA countries themselves would lead to simplification,
CONSIDERING that the most appropriate way of achieving this aim would be to extend to those EFTA countries which do not apply it the transit procedure which currently applies to the carriage of goods within the Community, between the Community and Austria and Switzerland, and between Austria and Switzerland,
CONSIDERING also the Nordic transit order applied between Finland, Norway and Sweden,

ANNEX I
APPLICATION OF ARTICLE 77
Temporary prohibition of the use of the comprehensive guarantee for a reduced amount or the comprehensive guarantee
1. |
Situations where use of the comprehensive guarantee for a reduced amount or the comprehensive guarantee may be prohibited temporarily:
1.1.
Temporary prohibition of the use of a comprehensive guarantee for a reduced amount The ‘special circumstances’ referred to in Article 77(a) mean a situation in which it has been established, in a significant number of cases involving more than one holder of the procedure and putting at risk the smooth functioning of the procedure that, in spite of the application of Article 65 or Article 80, the comprehensive guarantee or a comprehensive guarantee for a reduced amount referred to in Article 75(a) and (b) is no longer sufficient to ensure payment, within the prescribed time-limit, of the debt arising when some types of goods are removed from the common transit procedure.
1.2.
Temporary prohibition of the use of a comprehensive guarantee The ‘large-scale fraud’ referred to in Article 77(b) means a situation where it is established that, in spite of the application of Article 65 or 80, the comprehensive guarantee or the comprehensive guarantee for a reduced amount referred to in Article 75(a) and (b) is no longer sufficient to ensure payment, within the time-limit prescribed, of the debt arising when some types of goods are removed from the common transit procedure. In this connection account should be taken of the volume of goods removed and the circumstances of their removal, particularly if these result from internationally organised criminal activities. |
2. |
Decision-making procedure for temporarily prohibiting use of the comprehensive guarantee for a reduced amount or the comprehensive guarantee
|
3. |
Measures to alleviate the financial consequences of prohibiting use of the comprehensive guarantee When the use of the comprehensive guarantee has been prohibited temporarily according to Article 77, holders of comprehensive guarantees may, upon request, use an individual guarantee. However, the following special conditions shall apply:
—
the individual guarantee shall be put up in the form of a specific guarantee document which covers only the types of goods referred to in the decision;
—
this individual guarantee may be used only at the customs office of departure identified in the guarantee document;
—
it may be used to cover several simultaneous or successive operations provided that the sum of the amounts involved in current operations for which the procedure has not yet been discharged does not exceed the reference amount of the individual guarantee. In that case, the customs office of guarantee assigns one initial access code for the guarantee to the holder of the procedure. The holder of the procedure can assign one or more access codes to this guarantee to be used by himself or his representatives;
—
each time the procedure is discharged for a common transit operation covered by this individual guarantee, the amount corresponding to that operation shall be released and may be re-used to cover another operation up to the maximum amount of the guarantee.

ANNEX A1
EXPLANATORY NOTE ON THE USE OF TRANSIT DECLARATIONS, BY THE EXCHANGE OF EDI STANDARD MESSAGES (EDI TRANSIT DECLARATION)
TITLE I
GENERAL
►M38 The EDI transit declaration ◄ is presented electronically, except when the Convention provides otherwise.
The EDI transit declaration is based upon the particulars entered into the Convention of 20 May 1987 on simplification of formalities in trade in goods and corresponding to the different boxes of the Single Administrative Document (SAD) as defined in the present Annex and Annex B1, in association with or replaced by a code if appropriate.
This Annex contains exclusively the basic special requirements, which apply when the formalities are carried out by the exchange of the EDI standard messages. Furthermore the additional codes presented in Annex A2 are applicable. Annex B1 applies to the EDI transit declaration unless otherwise specified in this Annex or in Annex A2.
The detailed structure and content of the EDI transit declaration follow the technical specifications the competent authorities communicate to the ►M38 holder of the procedure ◄ in order to ensure the proper functioning of the system. These specifications are based upon the requirements laid down in this Annex.
This Annex describes the structure of the information exchange. ►M38 The EDI transit declaration ◄ is organised into data groups, which contain data attributes. The attributes are grouped together in such a way that they build up coherent logical blocks within the scope of the message. A data group indentation indicates that the data group depends on a lower indent data group.
When present, the appropriate number of the box on the SAD is noted.
The term ‘number’ in the explanation of a data group indicates how many times the data group may be used in the transit declaration.
The term ‘type/length’ in the explanation of an attribute indicates the requirements for the data type and the data length. The codes for the data types are as follows:
a |
alphabetic |
n |
numeric |
an |
alphanumeric |
The number following the code indicates the admissible data length. The following applies:
The optional two dots before the length indicator mean that the data has no fixed length, but it can have up to a number of digits, as specified by the length indicator. A comma in the data length means that the attribute can hold decimals, the digit before the comma indicates the total length of the attribute, the digit after the comma indicates the maximum number of digits after the decimal point.

Where consignments are grouped, the Contracting Parties may provide that one of the entries referred to under box 2 be made in this box and that the list of consignees be attached to the transit declaration. The Contracting Parties may allow this box not to be completed if the consignee is established outside the territory of the Contracting Parties. The identification number need not be shown at this stage. |
Box 15 |
: |

For example, where a tractor and a trailer with different vehicle registration numbers are used, enter the registration numbers of both tractor and trailer, and the nationality of the tractor. However where goods are carried in containers that are to be transported by road vehicles, the competent authorities may authorise the ►M38 holder of the procedure ◄ to leave this box blank where the logistical pattern at the point of departure may prevent the identity and nationality of the means of transport from being provided at the time of establishment of the transit declaration, and where they can ensure that the proper information concerning the means of transport shall be subsequently entered in box 55. Where goods are moved by fixed transport installations, do not enter anything for registration number or nationality in this box.

The requirement to enter the nationality is obligatory. However, where goods are carried by rail or moved by fixed installation, do not enter anything for registration number or nationality. Using the appropriate code, enter the type (lorry, ship, railway wagon, aircraft, etc.) and the means of identification (e.g. registration number or name) of the active means of transport (i.e. the means of transport providing propulsion) which it is presumed will be used at the frontier crossing point on exit from the Contracting Party where ►M38 the customs office of departure ◄ is located, followed by the code for the nationality of the means of transport, as known at the time the goods were placed under the common transit procedure. Where combined transport or several means of transport are used, the active means of transport is the unit which provides propulsion for the whole combination. For example, when a lorry is on a sea-going vessel, the active means of transport is the ship and where a combination of a tractor and a trailer is used, the active means of transport is the tractor. |
Box 25 |
: |
Mode of transport at the border This box is optional for the Contracting Parties. Use the codes provided for the purpose to enter the mode of transport which it is presumed will provide the active means of transport on which the goods will leave the territory of the Contracting Party in which ►M38 the customs office of departure ◄ is located. |

This box must also show the particulars required under any specific rules (e.g. on excise duties). If containers are used, the identifying marks of the container should also be entered in this box. |
Box 32 |
: |
Item number Give the number of the item shown in the list of items declared in box 5. Where a declaration covers only one item, the Contracting Parties need not require this box to be completed as the figure ‘1’ should already have been entered in box 5. |

Commodity code This box must be completed where:
—
the same person makes a transit declaration at the same time as, or following, a customs declaration which includes a commodity code, or

ANNEX A3a
TRANSIT ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENT
This Annex shall apply as of the dates of deployment of the upgrading of the NCTS referred to in the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/578.
Specimen of Transit Accompanying Document
ANNEX A4a
NOTES AND PARTICULARS (DATA) FOR THE TRANSIT ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENT
This Annex shall apply as of the dates of deployment of the upgrading of the NCTS referred to in the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/578.
The acronym ‘BCP’ (‘Business continuity plan’) used in this Annex refers to situations in which the business continuity procedure defined in Article 26 of Appendix I.
The paper to be used for the Transit Accompanying Document may be of green colour.
The transit accompanying document shall be printed on the basis of the data derived from the transit declaration, where appropriate, amended by the holder of the transit procedure and/or verified by the customs office of departure, and completed as follows:
1. Box MRN
The MRN is to be printed on the first page and on all lists of items except where these forms are used in the context of the BCP in which cases no MRN is allocated.
The ‘MRN’ shall also be printed in bar code mode using the standard ‘code 128 ’, character set ‘B’.
2. Box Forms (1/4):
3. In the space under box Reference number/UCR (2/4):
Name and address of the customs office to which a copy of the transit accompanying document has to be returned where BCP is used.
4. Box Office of departure (C):
5. Box Control by office of departure (D):
The transit accompanying document shall not be modified, nor shall any addition or deletion be made thereto unless otherwise specified in the Convention.
6. Formalities during incidents during movement of goods.
The following procedure is applicable until NCTS allows the customs authorities to record this information directly into the system.
Between the time when the goods leave the customs office of departure and the time they arrive at the customs office of destination, certain details may have to be added on the transit accompanying document accompanying the goods. Those details relate to the transport operation and shall be entered by the carrier responsible for the means of transport on which the goods are loaded as and when the corresponding activities are carried out. The particulars may be added legibly by hand, in which case the entries should be made in ink and in block letters.
Carriers are reminded that goods may be transhipped only under an authorisation of the customs authorities of the country in whose territory the transhipment is to be made.
Where those authorities consider that the common transit operation concerned may continue in the normal way, they shall, once they have taken any steps that may be necessary endorse the transit accompanying documents.
The customs authorities at the customs office of transit or at the customs office of destination, as the case may be, have the obligation to incorporate into the system the added data on the transit accompanying document. The data may also be incorporated by the authorised consignee.
The boxes and activities involved are:
Box Transhipment (7/1)
The carrier shall complete the first three lines of this box when goods are transhipped from one means of transport to another or from one container to another in the course of the operation in question.
However, where goods are carried in containers that are to be transported by road vehicles, customs authorities may authorise the holder of the transit procedure to leave box 7/7-/7/8 blank where the logistical pattern at the point of departure may prevent the identity and nationality of the means of transport from being provided at the time of establishment of the transit declaration, and where they are able to ensure that the proper information concerning the means of transport shall be subsequently entered in box 7/1.
Box Other incidents during carriage (7/19)
Box to be completed in accordance with current obligations regarding transit.
In addition, where goods have been loaded on a semi-trailer and the tractor is changed during the journey (without the goods being handled or transhipped), enter in this box the registration number and nationality of the new tractor. In this case, endorsement by the competent authorities is not necessary.
ANNEX A5a
LIST OF ITEMS
This Annex shall apply as of the dates of deployment of the upgrading of the NCTS referred to in the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/578.
Specimen of the list of items
ANNEX A6a
NOTES AND THE PARTICULARS (DATA) FOR THE LIST OF ITEMS
This Annex shall apply as of the dates of deployment of the upgrading of the NCTS referred to in the Annex to Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/578.
The acronym ‘BCP’ (‘Business continuity plan’) used in this Annex refers to situations in which the business continuity procedure defined in the Article 26 of Appendix I.

Box MRN – as defined in Annex A3a. The MRN is to be printed on the first page and on all lists of items except where these forms are used in the context of the BCP in which cases no MRN is allocated.
The data of the different boxes at item level have to be printed as follows:
Box Decl.type (1/3) – if the status of the goods for the whole declaration is uniform, the box is not used; if mixed consignment, the actual status, T1, T2 or T2F, is printed.

This additional request shall, as far as possible, be dealt with by the requested authority at the same time as the original request of the applicant authority. Where, in view of the state of progress of the existing procedure, the joinder of the additional request and the original request is not possible, the requested authority shall only be required to comply with the additional request if it concerns an amount not less than that referred to in Article 7 of Appendix IV.
Article 18
Any sum recovered by the requested authority, including, where applicable, the interest referred to in Article 9 (2) of Appendix IV, shall be the subject of a transfer to the applicant authority in the currency of the country in which the requested authority is situated. This transfer shall take place within one month of the date on which the recovery was effected.
However, if recovery measures applied by the requested authority are contested for a reason not falling within the responsibility of the country where the applicant authority is situated, the requested authority may wait to transfer any sums recovered in relation to the claims, until the dispute is settled, if the following conditions are simultaneously fulfilled:
The requested authority finds it likely that the outcome of this contestation will be favourable to the party concerned, and
The applicant authority has not declared that it will reimburse the sums already transferred if the outcome of that contestation is favourable to the party concerned.
Article 19
Irrespective of any amounts collected by the requested authority by way of interest referred to in Article 9 (2) of Appendix IV, the claim shall be deemed to have been recovered in proportion to the recovery of the amount expressed in the national currency of the country in which the requested authority is situated, on the basis of the exchange rate referred to in Article 13 (2).
