What connection shall an ocean carrier’s computer system have to the customs system, through internet? Are we obliged to connect the carrier system to all the customs offices in UE ports?
I think you are talking about the EU ports in the customs office not the UE ports!
First let me tell you about the basics. Any european repository for the ENS lodging that is single never exist. There is a special format to follow which is obeyed by the customs office for doing first entry in accordance with the NTS, formats, connections and other stuff. This must be first established with the help of the individuals of EU member states.
As a matter of fact, Ocean carriers, as you were saying, would need such type of connection to be established because it is necessary for the IT interface need for those custom administrations that will be on duty and acting as customs office of whatever first port of entrance is on their specific vessel rotation and to which the ENS must have to sent within 24-36 hours of time before the vessel actually loads.
This time can be sometimes 4 hours before the arrival for any other deep see maritime sector. For every other short sea sectors related to shipping has a time limit of 2 hours before the actual arrival.
