Re-exportation after inward processing

Upon completion of inward processing and re-exportation of goods, you are required to submit a re-export declaration. It is necessary to enter the correct codes in the declaration to receive an export certificate of the goods.

Declaration of re-exportation

The declaration should be submitted electronically via EDI or TID to Swedish Customs’ Data System.
A customs clearance request should be submitted at the customs clearance office (customs export office) responsible for supervising the exporter’s place of establishment or the location where the goods are packed or loaded to be shipped for export or from an approved location where the goods are loaded for exportation.

How to complete export declarations using Swedish Customs declaration guides (in Swedish)

Proof of exportation

To receive proof of exportation, you should enter code 30400 in field 44 in your declaration, to make it clear from the EAD that you are requesting proof of exportation. To allow the customs export office to confirm that the goods have exited the EU, you are required to present your goods and EAD at the customs export office.

The proof that the goods have left the EU is established when the customs export office confirms the exportation electronically. In cases of indirect exports (the customs export office is located in another member state) it is not necessary to enter code 30400, as these exports are always completed electronically in the EU Export Control System (ECS). Please note that you are still required to enter code 30400 for shipments that may be redirected to a Swedish customs export office.

To see confirmed exports and print a certificate of exportation, you must ensure that your company has access to the Exportbevis service on tullverket.se or the cross-authority service Mina meddelanden (My messages).

Transiting when re-exporting

In cases where a re-export declaration has been submitted and the goods (the processed goods) are to be transited, the customs office of departure for the transit is responsible for clearing the goods for export. As an authorised consignor, you are responsible for demonstrating the transit and EAD for the re-export to the customs office of departure, to allow the customs office to clear the goods declared for re-export.

In your transit declaration, enter code 830 (export) in field 44, Attachments, type. Enter either code 10200 (AF goods) or 10300 (AF goods, trade policy) in Attachments, reference, MRN/customs ID and Code for special information.
