UPDATE: NCTS, Office of Transit (II)

Publication date 12-02-2021, 14:52

In the previous period (from 1-1-2021) it was noticed that the Office of Transport for declarations ending in the UK, Northern Ireland and Ireland was omitted on a number of occasions. As of Monday 1st of February the check on this Office will be intensified, what will result in rejecting the declaration if not present. Please pay attention, this will prevent delays and annoyance.

Futher outside the warning above, it has become clear that a lot of declarations are missing an office of entry (OoT) for the UK for destination UK. The declaration is unkown there which will result in delays. With transit to IE or XI it is the same an UK office of transit and a IE/XI office of transit.

So the process is as follows:
NL-GB: OoDep – OoT(NL) —- OoT(GB) — OoDest
NL- IE : OoDep – OoT (NL) —- OoT (GBin) –- OoT (GBuit)— OoT (IEin) — OoDest
NL- XI : as IE
