An EDI version of the Portbase service Notification Local Clearance will shortly be made available. Two companies have registered for a pilot. Thanks to a system link with Portbase, they can send the local clearance notifications to Customs directly from their own computer systems. This allows them to work even more efficiently.
They no longer need to log in on the Web, and manual data entry will become a thing of the past. As soon as it seems the pilot with the service Notification Local Clearance EDI has proven successful, other parties will also be allowed to start connecting. The service Notification Local Clearance makes it even easier for companies to take advantage of simplified customs procedures to enable the free movement of goods arriving from overseas under the DIN regulation (local clearance entry) or DEN regulation (local clearance via a bonded warehouse).
