Step-by-step introduction of Notification Ship’s Stores

scheepsvoorraden - kisten

We are currently putting the finishing touches on the construction of the service Notification Ship’s Stores. At the end of November, a pilot involving companies from the working group will begin. Once this pilot has proven successful, all other parties who have signed up to take part will be able to start using the new service in December. Our Service Desk will notify you of your company’s exact activation date in a separate message.

Notification Ship’s Stores offers you a practical solution for meeting the new upcoming Customs obligation. From 29 December 2017, you will be required to electronically notify the ship’s stores on board all visiting vessels to Customs. Using an IMOFAL 3 form will no longer be allowed after that point. Our new service is suitable for all Dutch ports.

In the future, also via the service Vessel Notification 2.0
Notification Ship’s Stores will initially be offered as a separate service within the Port Community System (PCS). In early 2018, the service will also become available as a task in Vessel Notification 2.0. We will then be creating that additional task for those Vessel Notification 2.0 participants who also use Notification Ship’s Stores. In those cases, a portion of the data will be filled in for you automatically.
