Starting from 2011110, the EU will implement the "declare in advance Manifest" rule for all goods going to or passing through EU ports, which is applicable to all 28 EU member states.
If this rule is not followed, in the worst case, it may lead to the stop of cargo loading and unloading and the interruption of cargo flow and supply chain. In addition, the local customs authorities of EU countries will impose fines or other fines on the carrier and other parties responsible for submitting the goods declaration form.
For all goods entering the EU, the company must submit the Entry Summary Declaration Form (ENS) to the first port of call of the EU country where the container ship stops, and it must be submitted 24 hours before loading at the port of departure.
