Questions

Often, entities involved in the movement of goods are interested in when and in which place they are required to issue a transit declaration. This document must accompany all material values ​​of non-European origin, as well as those arriving from European warehouses transported through the territory of the EEC. A declaration for goods arriving by land is filled out at the border of the EEC if they come from outside. Registration is carried out by the supplier, its agent or the representative of the forwarder, if material values ​​came from the internal warehouse of the vehicle. With regard to goods arriving by air or sea from countries that are not members of the EEC, the document is prepared directly at the airport or at the place of arrival by an authorized person. If the object was shipped from the EU by plane and it requires a declaration, it is provided by the sender. An air waybill may be issued with a special mark.
