Shipping Corporation of India (SCI) today said it will implement the European Union's new regulation for all goods on vessels coming from non-EU countries, including India, into the EU Customs territory.
The regulation will come into effect from January. For the formal implementation of the EU Customs Advanced Manifest Rule, the state-run shipping giant would be required to set up necessary procedures and systems.
Accordingly, SCI would be charging an entry summary declaration (ENS) fee of $25 per export, a company release said here.
The regulation, to be applied to all inbound shipment into the EU-member states, aims to ensure security risk assessment is performed prior to loading origin base-port.
Consequently, all carriers must electronically submit the required data elements to the EU Customs office at the vessel's first EU calling base-port at least 24-hour prior to mother vessel berthing (ETA) at origin base-port, the release added.
