ICS
The Import Control System (ICS) is part of the EU-wide Automated Import System to facilitate import procedures so that traders only have to submit information once. The safety and security amendment to the European Community (EC) Customs Code requires that carriers – or their authorised representatives – lodge electronic entry summary declarations (ENS) at the first (air)port of entry into the customs territory of the EC at a prescribed time ahead of the arrival of the goods, even if the eventual destination of the cargo is outside of the EC.
- myCustoms import control system (ICS) module caters for mandatory reporting of security and safety information to the Customs authorities prior to the goods arrival.
- The role of submission is primarily the responsibility of the carrier (airline, shipping line), however many third parties, including terminal shed operators and handling agents are allowed to submit such entries on behalf of the carriers.
- myCustoms ICS can convert airline standards (cargo-IMP) shipping standards (EDIFACT) XML or indeed any propriety standards to produce the required entry summary declaration (ENS).
