Import Control System 2 (ICS2)
The Import Control System 2 (ICS2) is an electronic safety and security system used by the European Union, as well as countries such as Norway and Switzerland, to assess risks on goods before they arrive in the customs territory.
Under ICS2, carriers and other responsible parties must submit an Entry Summary Declaration (ENS), a pre-arrival safety and security declaration, providing detailed information about the goods, supply chain, and routing. This data is used by customs authorities to carry out risk analysis prior to arrival, helping to identify and prevent security threats.
