France – NCTS outage (Friday 22/11/2024 at 18:00 CET until Monday 25/11/2024 at 10:00 CET)
As part of French customs transition to NCTS 5, there will be a planned downtime of the current transit system (Delta-T) to facilitate the transition to NCTS 5.
The NCTS system in France will be unavailable between Friday 22/11/2024 at 18:00 CET until Monday 25/11/2024 at 10:00 CET
This means it will not be possible to submit new transit declarations during this time.
Transits from the UK
Transit from the UK will still continue as normal but all trucks entering France will need to report to customs authorities to complete office of transit procedures. Possible delays are expected.
SGS to start in NCTS 5 in November

Until then, operations in France will continue as normal.
