Control Cargo

WHAT:

  • Notification by Customs of an inspection means that the goods cannot leave the terminal. After the inspection, the goods can return to a status in which they go through the normal process, or they can be placed under “irregularity under investigation”. In the latter, a customs officer decides which measures are necessary.
  • Only AEO certified parties can be informed of the audit digitally when submitting the TS info AEO.
  • Any irregularity must first be resolved before goods can be released and temporary storage can be terminated.

BY WHOM:

  • Customs

FOR WHOM:

  • Terminal
  • Haulier

WHEN:

  • Every notification or adjustment of a TS, and an activation via PN, can trigger the notification of a control by customs.

HOW:

  • A notice of control will be communicated by RX to each stakeholder. This can be followed up via dashboard in the portal, or via EDI notification.
  • Further analysis of customs reporting may include the planned date of the control and detailed information about the goods under control.
