Netherlands to start in NCTS 5 on Tuesday the 29th of October 2024
Dutch customs have announced their timeline for transition to NCTS 5 (DVA).
On Tuesday 29th of July at 08.00 a.m. CET it will not be possible to submit new declarations in NCTS 4 format. NCTS 4 will stop working at that time.
Between 8:00 a.m. and 16:00 p.m. CET, the NCTS system in the Netherlands will be shutdown. This means that during this period no new declarations can be submitted to the customs system.
From 16:00 p.m. CET, new transit declarations can only be made in NCTS Phase 5 format.
TransitNet will allow the creation of NCTS 5 declaration on Tuesday 29th but those declarations will not be submitted to customs until 16:00 p.m. CET or after further confirmation from Dutch customs.
Attached the user guidelines with the TransitNet changes in the Netherlands.
