When goods are introduced from third countries you should lodge a presentation notification with Swedish Customs. The goods should be covered by a temporary storage declaration at the time of giving notification.

The image below shows the procedure when a Temporary Storage Declaration (TSD) for air consignments is submitted when the goods arrive. Under the image, you can read descriptions of what happens in each step.

Swedish Customs receives the declaration and validates the content. The declaration is assigned an MRN.

Swedish Customs informs the declarant that the declaration has been assigned the status “Lodged – Presented”.

The declarant receives the message “Lodged – Presented”.

Swedish Customs notifies the holder of the authorisation of the goods that have been presented and that temporary storage has started.

The 90 day countdown begins.

The holder of the authorisation receives a message from Swedish Customs with information about what goods are presented.

Swedish Customs verifies and validates the content of the Temporary Storage Declaration (TSD).

Swedish Customs informs the holder of the authorisation that the declaration is approved. The declaration is assigned ‘Lodged – Approved’ status.

The declarant is informed that the TSD is approved and that the declaration has been given the status ‘Lodged – Approved’.

The holder of the authorisation is informed that the TSD is approved and that the declaration has been given the status ‘Lodged – Approved’. Only now can the goods be placed under other customs procedures to end temporary storage.

If discrepancies are detected, either when the goods are inventoried or during the actual storage, the authorisation holder must submit a discrepancy report to notify customs of the discrepancies. It is now possible to move goods using the same authorisation.
