EMCS PROCEDURE

Termination of the transport

The EMCS procedure is terminated when the consignee has started the excisable goods in his business. This process is referred to as taking possession and means the inclusion in the warehouse of the recipient. This is either the owner of a tax warehouse or a registered recipient. Immediately after the goods have been taken into service, the consignee must send an initial notification, using the EMCS protocol, to the responsible main customs office.

Examination by the main customs office

There, the information on the supply of excise goods is automatically checked. the main customs office informs the recipient of the result of the examination. If the consignor was the holder of a tax warehouse or registered consignor, the result of the examination is also transmitted to him by the main customs office in the form of an acknowledgment of receipt.

The competent customs office may require the immediate presentation of the excise goods at the place of receipt of the goods.

In principle, however, the receipt of the goods is proof of termination of the movement of the excise goods – the EMCS procedure is thus terminated.
