Hosted by Trade Tech, this complimentary Canadian International Freight Forwarders Association (CIFFA) webinar provided an introduction to Entry Summary Declaration (ENS) filing changes, including ENS filing at the HBL level, which will become mandatory in 2024, impacting all stakeholders in the CIFFA community.
Import Control System 2, or ICS2, is a new EU customs security and safety program designed to enhance the security of the global supply chain and modernize customs processes as an upgrade to the current ENS filing requirement.
Its implementation impacts all parties involved in shipping goods to or via (FROB) the EU by ocean and inland waterways, road and rail. It requires the electronic submission of detailed goods information prior to their arrival in the EU, facilitating risk analysis for security and safety.
Trade Tech will present information on:
- ENS implementation dates, including the house bill of lading go-live of December 4, 2024.
- Which countries are included in ENS filing?
- What is different from other filings?
- Up until now, EU ENS was strictly an ocean-carrier-level filing; it’s changing soon to require freight forwarders to file ENS.
- How should stakeholders prepare for ICS2 / ENS filing?
- Timeline to go live.
- Freight forwarders and NVOCCs will also have to ensure that their customers are prepared to comply.
- Have you secured an EORI number?
- What data is required for the entry summary declaration (ENS)?
