Declaration guide for transit, NCTS

Enter a code for each declaration type. The following codes are applicable:

The type of declaration should be indicated at the declaration header level if it applies to all items. Otherwise, enter code “T” at the declaration header level and codes corresponding to the goods at each goods item.

For exports followed by a transit procedure for excise goods (e.g., consignments from Sweden to Norway)

If reference to an e-AD or fallback procedure for the movement of excise goods has been provided in data element 12 04 000 000 'Additional reference data' and MRN for export declaration is provided in data element 12 01 000 000 'Previous document', enter the code T1 at declaration level or T1 at House consignment item level for excise goods.

In case of transit of excise goods, under duty suspension, with customs status as Union goods (e.g. consignment from SE to IT, via CH)

If reference to an e-AD or fallback procedure for the movement of excise goods has been indicated in data element 12 03 000 000 'Supporting documents', enter the code T2 or T2F at declaration level or T2 or T2F at House consignment item level for items with excise goods.

Here you can specify whether or not a transit declaration is lodged before presenting the goods to Swedish Customs.

Please note that this is not the same as the distinction between a normal and a simplified procedure. A normal procedure is declared by not providing authorisation information in the transit declaration. A simplified procedure is used when declaring an authorisation. More information can be found under 12 12 000 000 ‘Authorisation’.

Use one of the following codes:

• A – For a transit declaration containing all the data necessary to start the procedure
• D – For pre-lodged transit declaration (must first be supplemented with additional information using message IE170)
  

Enter the goods item numbers for each House consignment. Start from '1' for the first item and increase the numbering by '1' for each following item.

For export followed by a transit procedure, the goods items in the transit declaration must follow the same order as in the export declaration. However, several export declarations can still be accompanied by a transit declaration.

Enter a code for how the declaration is combined with an entry summary declaration, exit summary declaration or a combination of both.

Enter one of the following codes:

Indicate if you hold an authorisation to use a reduced data set by entering one of the following codes:

• Kod 0 – No (The goods are not declared with a reduced data set).
• Kod 1 – Yes (The goods are declared with a reduced data set).

If you entered `TIR` as data element 11 01 000 000 “Declaration type”, you can only use code 0.

Enter the goods item numbers for the entire declaration. Start from '1' for the first item and increase the numbering by '1' for each following item. Please note that the goods item number must be unique for the entire declaration.

During the transition period, information on previous documents shall only be provided at House consignment item level. During the transition period, when several export declarations are accompanied by a transit declaration, the reference to the MRN of the export declarations should be provided on the respective House consignment item. A maximum of one MRN per House consignment item.

This is where you refer to previous documents using their document codes and reference numbers.

Use the Master consignment level if the document applies to all goods items in the declaration. If no document is provided at the Master consignment level, enter the information for each House consignment item.

If the declaration concerns transit to a special tax area, or if the export procedure is followed by a transit procedure, it is mandatory to file on the House consignment level, with a reference to the MRN of the export declaration.

Code NMRN should also be used as reference for removal from a customs warehouse or temporary storage.
