2/1.   Simplified declaration/Previous documents

This data element consists of alphanumeric codes.

Each code has three components. The first component (an..3), which consists of a combination of digits and/or letters, serves to identify the type of document. The second component (an..35) represents the data needed to recognise that document, either its identification number or another recognisable reference. The third component (an..5) is used to identify which item of the previous document is being referred to.

Where a paper-based customs declaration is lodged, the three components are separated by dashes (-).

1.   The first component (an..3):

Choose the abbreviation for the document from the ‘list of abbreviations for documents’ below.

Fields 1 and 2 as explained above.

Field 3 shall be filled in with an identifier for the message concerned. The way that field is used is under the responsibility of the countries, but each message handled during one year within the given country must have a unique number in relation to the procedure concerned.

The countries that want to have the reference number of the competent customs office included in the MRN, may use up to the first 6 characters to represent it.

Field 4 shall be filled in with an identifier of the procedure defined in the table below.

Field 5 shall be filled with a value that is a check digit for the whole MRN. This field allows for detection of an error when capturing the whole MRN.

Codes to be used in field 4 Procedure identifier:

Example:

The declaration item concerned was the 5th item on the T1 transit document (previous document) to which the office of destination has assigned the number ‘238544’. The code will therefore be ‘821-238544-5’. (‘821’ for the transit procedure, ‘238544’ for the document's registration number (or the MRN for the NCTS operations) and ‘5’ for the item number).

Where, in the case of paper-based transit declarations, more than one reference has to be entered, and the countries provide that a coded information shall be used, code 00200 as defined in D.E. 2/2 Additional information shall be applicable.

2/2.   Additional information

A five-digit code is used to encode additional information of a customs nature. This code follows the additional information unless the Contracting Parties law provides for the code to be used in place of the text.

The codes ‘00200’ and ‘00300’ are used only in case of paper-based transit declarations, if applicable.

The codes ‘20100’, ‘20200’ and ‘20300’ are used in case of paper-based and electronic transit declarations, if applicable.

Legal basis	Subject	Additional information	Code
Annex B6a, Title III	Several occurrences of documents and parties	‘Various’	00200
Annex B6a, Title III	Identity between declarant and consignor	‘Consignor’	00300

The list of documents, certificates and authorisations, and of additional references and their respective codes can be found in the TARIC database.

(b)

National documents, certificates and authorisations produced in support of the transit declaration, and additional references, shall be entered in the form of a code as defined in Title II, possibly followed either by an identification number or another recognisable reference. The four characters represent codes based on that country's own nomenclature.

3/1.   Exporter

In the case of groupage consignments, where paper-based transit declarations are used, and the countries provide for the use of coded information, code 00200 as defined in D.E. 2/2 (Additional information) shall be applicable.

3/21.   Representative status code

Insert one of the following codes (n1) before the full name and address to designate the status of the representative:

2.	Representative — direct representation (the customs representative acts in the name of and on behalf of another person)
3.	Representative — indirect representation (the customs representative acts in his or her own name, but on behalf of another person)

Where this data element is printed on a paper document, it will be in square brackets (Ex: [2] or [3]).

3/22.   Holder of the transit procedure

For the Member States of the European Union – indicate the EORI number in the Union or a third country unique identification number recognised by the Union.

For common transit countries – indicate both: the EORI number in the Union and the trader identification number in a common transit country. If the EORI number has not been granted, indicate only the trader identification number in a common transit country.

MF	Manufacturer	Party which manufactures goods
FW	Freight Forwarder	Party undertaking forwarding of goods
WH	Warehouse Keeper	Party taking responsibility for goods entered into a warehouse

2.   Identification No of the party

The structure of that number corresponds to the structure as specified for D.E. 3/2 Exporter identification No.

5/6.   Office of destination (and country)

Use (an8) codes structured as follows:

—	the first two characters (a2) serve to identify the country by means of the country code specified for Exporter identification number,

—	the next six characters (an6) stand for the office concerned in that country. It is suggested that the following structure be adopted:

The first three characters (an3) would be taken up by the UN/LOCODE (*1) location name and the last three by a national alphanumeric subdivision (an3). If this subdivision is not used, the characters ‘000’ should be inserted.

Example: BEBRU000: BE = ISO 3166 for Belgium, BRU = UN/LOCODE location name for the city of Brussels, 000 for the unused subdivision.

5/23.   Location of goods

Use the ISO alpha 2 country codes used in field 1 of D.E. 3/1 Exporter.

For the type of location, use the codes specified below:

A	Designated location

In case the economic operator has more than one premises, the number shall be completed by an identifier unique for the location concerned
Y	Authorisation number	Enter the authorisation number of the location concerned, i.e. authorisation for the status of authorised consignor. In case the authorisation concerns more than one premises, the authorisation number shall be completed by an identifier unique for the location concerned.

In case code ‘X’ or ‘Y’ is used for the identification of the location, and there are several locations associated with the EORI number or the authorisation number concerned, an additional identifier may be used to enable the unambiguous identification of the location.

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):

—	first subdivision: serial number of the current printed sheet,

—	second subdivision: total number of sheets printed (incl. list of items),

—	shall not be used when there is only one item.

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):

—	the name of the customs office of departure,

—	reference number of the customs office of departure,

—	acceptance date of the transit declaration,

—	the name and the authorisation number of the authorised consignor (if any).

5.   Box Control by office of departure (D):

—	control results,

—	seals affixed or the indication ‘- -’ identifying the ‘Waiver — 99201’,

—	the indication ‘Binding itinerary’, where appropriate.

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:

—

Transhipment: use box 7/1. 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.

—

Other incidents: use box 7/19. 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.
