NEW: EU Customs Declaration changes in effect Sunday, October 1, 2023

There will be changes to the information required on Customs Declaration forms for all parcels being shipped to EU countries beginning October 1, 2023.

The EU Transportation and Customs authorities will now be leveraging Electronic Advanced Data (EAD), to make pre-departure decisions to determine if an item can be loaded on the aircraft for transport to the European Union.

When filling out the Customs Declaration form electronically (also known as the CN22, CN23 or CP72), the Customers must provide accurate and detailed data and ensure all mandatory fields are completed. Providing false or incomplete information, in any completed fields, including listing “N/A” or “0000000000,” may result in the parcel being rejected by foreign customs authorities.
