From now on, you can declare the ship’s stores on board visiting vessels to Customs via Portbase. Our new service Notification Ship’s Stores is now available in the Port Community System (PCS). If you have already signed up to participate, you can begin using the service this very moment. The new service has automatically been added to your overview of services.

Notification Ship’s Stores offers you a practical solution for meeting the new upcoming Customs obligation. From 29 December 2017, you will be required to electronically notify the ship’s stores on board all visiting vessels to Customs. Using an IMOFAL 3 form will no longer be allowed after that point. Our new service is suitable for all Dutch ports and available for you to use right away.
In the future, via Vessel Notification as well
Notification Ship’s Stores is initially being offered as a separate service within the PCS. In early 2018, the service will also become available as a task in Vessel Notification 2.0. We will then be creating that additional task for those Vessel Notification 2.0 participants who also use Notification Ship’s Stores. In those cases, a portion of the data will be filled in for you.
