Estonian Tax and Customs Board Implements Modern and Efficient Customs Clearance Systems

  • The Estonian Tax and Customs Board (ETCB) is updating its customs services for export and transit by introducing new information systems.
  • The aim is to bring customs formalities into conformity with the requirements of the Union Customs Code and improve supervision, safety, and security.
  • The new systems are intended for exporters, carriers, and customs agencies.
  • The systems allow for large-scale export and transit declarations, eliminating the need for multiple declarations.
  • The new systems are accessible in three languages and are based on a familiar design.
  • A scheduled maintenance will be carried out to introduce the new systems, and all pending declarations will be migrated.
  • Access permissions for the new systems will be opened automatically for economic operators currently submitting declarations in Complex and NCTS.
  • The development of the systems received funding from the European Regional Development Fund.
  • The projects were carried out in cooperation with the Information Technology Centre of the Ministry of Finance and software companies Cybernetica AS and Nortal AS.
  • The ETCB encourages customers to inform customs of any concerns or issues that may arise from the introduction of the new systems.
