ENS/EXS - Safety & Security Declaration
A safety & security declaration is a border alert to advise the frontier that you are intending to leave or about to arrive.
There are two types of declaration:-
- ENS : entry summary declaration - advises the arrival border
- EXS : exit summary declaration - advises the departure border
We are able to submit ENS declarations in : Ireland, Northern Ireland, France and GB (GB not required until October 2024). The ENS process is not auto generated by the import entry as, for example, the ENS may be required in Calais but the ultimate clearance could be inland. The ENS is required at the first touch-point of the new customs territory.
The EXS declaration is normally part of the EAD export declaration but there will be times when there is no export declaration (such as an empty container) but an EXS is still required (if the movement is part of a transport contract).
To request a safety & security declaration simply complete the form below.
NB: This process should only be used when you require an ENS or EXS ONLY and no other customs or border processes.
This process is for ENS only and should NOT be used if full export or import formalities are required.
