Important Information Regarding Import Control System 2 (ICS2)

Advisory

Dear valued ONE customer,

Re: Important Information Regarding Import Control System 2 (ICS2)

This 3rd advisory informs you about the upcoming implementation of the European Union's Import Control System 2 (ICS2). ICS2 requires advanced cargo information to be submitted electronically before goods enter the EU (including Norway, Northern Ireland, and Switzerland).

 

Key Dates:

Transition Period Start: June 3rd, 2024

Transition Period End: December 4th, 2024

House-Filing Option Start: December 4th, 2024

 

What Does This Mean for You?

Effective September 3, 2024, all customers shipping cargo to the EU will need to provide ICS2 data. Here’s what you need to know:

  • ENS Filing by ONE: In certain instances, ONE may be able to handle the Entry Summary Declaration (ENS) filing on your behalf (options F10 and F11). Please consult with your local ONE office to confirm if this service is available at your location. ONE will file the Master BL for (option 12) and Straight BL (option 13).
     
  • House-Filing Option: · You may also choose to obtain your own EORI number, register with EU customs, and file your supplementary declarations (options F12 and F13).

Once we receive all the necessary information and submit the ENS, the relevant customs authorities will conduct a risk assessment within 24 hours. Your cargo can only be loaded after customs approves the ENS and provides an MRN confirmation number.

 

If ONE files your ENS, after we receive the necessary information and submit the ENS, customs authorities will perform a risk assessment within 24 hours. Your cargo can only be loaded once customs approves the ENS and issues an MRN confirmation number.

Information Required for ONE to File Your ENS:
  • Complete Buyer and Seller details (including full address)
  • Master BL Consignee's EORI number
  • 6-digit Harmonized Commodity (HS) code
  • Accurate and detailed cargo description
  • CUS code for chemical goods (if applicable)
  • Method of payment

 

House-Filing Option:

Customers who prefer to file their own declarations can apply for an EORI number, and register with EU customs as a House-Filer.

House-filing capabilities will be available from December 4th, 2024.

Until then, ONE will perform a partial ENS filing on your behalf which must include your relevant EORI number.

 

System Updates:

We are updating our eCommerce platform, EDI, and IT systems for easier data submissions, enabling customers to provide the necessary information in their booking requests and shipping instructions. Expect additional data fields to be added in the coming weeks.

Third-Party Platforms: Major platforms like Inttra, GTNexus, and Cargowise are also updating their systems to comply with ICS2.

 

If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to your local office for assistance. Contact details can be found here: https://www.one-line.com/en/standard-page/booking-contacts.
