The Reform Package – A reform of the Customs Union (in Swedish)
Centralised customs clearance will be implemented in two parts. The first part covered standard customs declarations and was introduced in Sweden in 2025. The second part covers simplified and supplementary declarations as well as entry in the declarant's records and will be introduced in Sweden on 1 September 2026.
Centralised customs clearance (import)
ATA carnets are based on two international conventions (the ATA Convention and Annex A of the Istanbul Convention) which make it possible to simplify customs formalities in connection with the temporary entry and exit of goods in different countries. In Sweden, ATA carnets are issued by a competent chamber of commerce.
The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) has developed a digital system to replace the current paper-based system. The EU's goal is for all Member States to switch to electronic ATA carnets 1 June 2026. Globally, the transition will take place gradually. This means that ATA carnets will be handled both digitally and in paper format during a transition period.
An online service is being developed for cases where an export declaration is not to be submitted and you instead need to submit a separate exit summary declaration. The online service will be introduced in autumn 2026.
An online service is being developed for re-export notifications, for example for goods that are in temporary storage and must be notified for re-export. The online service will be introduced in autumn 2026.
