The European Union (EU) is strengthening safety and security at customs for its
citizens through a large-scale information system called Import Control System 2
(ICS2). As a result, we will need to provide additional information about your
shipments to the authorities and we are asking you to ensure that you provide
these details, each time you ship.


WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU

MARCH 1, 2023

Beginning March 1, 2023, all goods being shipped into or transiting through the
EU*, Northern Ireland, Norway and Switzerland by air will need to have:

 * A minimum six-digit Harmonized System (HS) code for each item in the shipment
 * Accurate goods description for each item in the shipment
 * If known, the receiver’s Economic Operator Registration and Identification
   (EORI) number**



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Accurate goods description for each item in the shipment

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If known, the receiver’s Economic Operator Registration and Identification
(EORI) number**



These rules apply to all goods (except documents), regardless of value.






MARCH 1, 2024

Beginning March 1, 2024 these requirements will extend to road, rail and
maritime shipments.  

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ROAD

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RAIL

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MARITIME




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It will be mandatory for FedEx to provide this information to the authorities.

If it is not supplied with the goods you are importing, we may have to delay
your shipment until we can obtain the required details.  

Learn more


WHAT YOU NEED TO DO

1. Provide a minimum six-digit HS code for every item


You should be able to find the correct codes for your items on your country’s
government website.

A Harmonized System (HS) code is an internationally standardized system of
describing and classifying goods. It is used by customs authorities to identify
items and apply the correct duties and taxes (or restrictions) to them. In some
countries, HS codes are also known by other names. Tariff codes and commodity
codes are two of the most common.


2. Provide a full and accurate goods description


This is needed for each type of item you are shipping. The description should
answer:

 * What is it?

 * What is it made of?

 * What is it intended for?

Remember to also include the material composition breakdown – e.g. a men’s suit
might be 80% cotton and 20% polyester – and check if you require any additional
paperwork.


3. Include your receiver’s EORI number


If known, you will also need to include your receiver’s Economic Operator
Registration and Identification (EORI) number** in the Recipient Tax ID field of
your shipping application (if available) and on the commercial invoice.

If you aren’t already, please start providing these details now. They will help
your business’ compliance, help reduce delays at customs, and ensure that the
correct duties and taxes are applied when your goods are shipped across borders.


4. Provide this information in the correct places


The HS codes, goods descriptions and your receiver’s EORI number should be added
in the dedicated fields of your shipping application, as well as on the
commercial invoice. Only supplying this information on the commercial invoice is
likely to lead to delays in transporting or delivering your goods. If you are
unsure of how to enter this information, please contact your sales
representative.




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you aren’t already, please start providing these details now. They will help
your business’ compliance, help reduce delays at customs, and ensure that the
correct duties and taxes are applied when your goods are shipped across borders.

*EU countries are: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czechia,
Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy,
Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania,
Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain and Sweden.

**Please note VAT registered businesses must obtain EORI numbers. Depending on
applicable country or territory regulations, private individuals may need an
EORI number to ship or receive packages. In Norway this is referred to as
Organization number and Switzerland refer to this as Unique Identification
number.
