Starting from July 1, a new simplification for recognized businesses – centralized customs clearance – will be available to customs clients

In accordance with the European Union's regulatory framework in the customs field, starting from July 1 of this year, a new functionality – centralized customs clearance – will be introduced in the Automated Import System (AIS) for goods when submitting an import declaration.

Centralized customs clearance provides new opportunities for customs clients to review their business processes, optimize logistics flows, and consequently reduce costs. To use the new AIS functionality, a business must obtain a Centralized Customs Clearance permit.

The Centralized Customs Clearance permit can only be granted to holders of the Authorized Economic Operator for Customs Simplifications (AEOC) status.

A legal entity that has received the Centralized Customs Clearance permit can submit an import declaration to the customs authority of the country where it conducts its business, while simultaneously presenting the goods to the customs authority of another member state. The customs duty will be paid to the customs authority where the import declaration is submitted.

To obtain a Centralized Customs Clearance permit, a business must submit an application through the European Union's unified European Customs Decision System. Information on accessing the system and submitting an application is available on the SRS website.
