The Entry Summary Declaration is a European obligation and part of the Import Control System (ICS). For every feeder, shortsea, bulk and general cargo vessel from outside the European Union, a declaration of all goods on board originating from outside the EU must be submitted to Customs authorities in the first port of call in the EU, four (4) hours before arrival there. Customs then uses this declaration to carry out a safety and security scan.
The service Cargo Declaration Import (4h) is part of the complete range of services that Portbase offers to agents and shipbrokers/shipping companies (shortsea, feeder) in order to quickly and efficiently carry out all administrative obligations around incoming vessels and cargo.
