the transit declaration shall be registered in box C using a system of numbering different from that used in the computerised system,
the fallback procedure shall be indicated on the copies of the transit declaration with the stamp, conforming to the specimen in Part II of this Annex, in box A of the single administrative document (SAD) or in the place of the MRN and the barcode on the TAD,
where a simplified procedure is used the economic operator shall fulfil all the obligations and conditions regarding the entries to be made in the declaration and the use of the special stamp referred to in points 26 to 29, using respectively boxes D and C,
the document shall be stamped either by the office of departure in case of the standard procedure or by the authorised consignor where a simplified procedure is used,

The provisions set out in point 4 shall apply excluding the provisions of the simplified procedure.
The principal shall inform the customs authorities when his computer system and/or network is available again.
Where the authorised consignor’s computer system and/or network is/are unavailable the following procedure shall apply:

in these circumstances or in the event of network deficiencies when an authorised consignor makes more than 2 % of his declarations in a year under the fallback procedure, the authorisation shall be reviewed in order to assess whether its conditions are still met.
However, in the cases referred to in points 5 and 6, national customs authorities may allow economic operators to present the transit declaration in one copy (making use of the SAD or, where relevant, of the layout of the TAD) to the office of departure in order to have it processed by the customs computerised system.
Where the office of guarantee is not the office of departure for the transit operation, it shall keep a copy of the instrument which provides evidence that it has accepted the guarantor’s undertaking. The principal shall present the original to the office of departure, where it shall be retained. If necessary the office may request a translation into the official language, or one of the official languages, of the country concerned.
In the case of consignments comprising both goods which must be carried under the T1 procedure and goods which must be carried under the T2 procedure, the transit declaration bearing the “T” symbol shall be supplemented by:
supplementary forms bearing the “T1bis”, “T2bis” or “T2Fbis” symbol, as appropriate, or

On the basis of the authorisation in accordance with Article 372(1)(a) comprehensive guarantee certificates and guarantee waiver certificates issued by the customs authorities shall be presented at the office of departure. Particulars of the certificates shall be entered on transit declarations.
Use of such lists shall be authorised only where:
they are produced by firms which use an integrated electronic or automatic data-processing system to keep their records,
they are designed and completed in such a way that they can be used without difficulty by the customs authorities,
they include, for each item, the information required under Annex 44a.
Principals shall enter, opposite the heading “seals affixed” in box “D. Control by office of departure” of the transit declaration, the make, type, and number of the seals affixed.
Holders of such exemptions shall enter the following phrase in the corresponding attribute box 44 of the transit declaration:
Prescribed itinerary waived — 99205.

The following phrase, measuring at least 100 x 10 mm and printed in red capital letters, shall be affixed diagonally to all copies of the transit declaration:
COMPREHENSIVE GUARANTEE PROHIBITED — 99208.
By way of derogation from point 18, the office of destination shall return Copy No 5 of any transit declaration endorsed with this phrase no later than on the working day following that on which the consignment and the requisite copies of the declaration were presented at that office. Where such a consignment is presented to an authorised consignee within the meaning of Article 406, he shall send Copy No 5 to his local office of destination no later than on the working day following that on which he took receipt of the consignment.
When the use of the comprehensive guarantee has been prohibited temporarily for goods referred to in the list in Annex 44c, holders of comprehensive guarantees may, upon request, use an individual guarantee. However, the following special condition shall apply:
this individual guarantee can be used, within the framework of the fallback procedure, only within the office of departure identified in the guarantee instrument.

The paper to be used for the Transit Accompanying Document can be of green colour.
The transit accompanying document shall be printed on the basis of the data derived from the transit declaration, where appropriate amended by the principal and/or verified by the office of departure, and completed with:
MRN (movement reference number)
The information is given alphanumerically with 18 digits on the following specimen:
Field | Content | Field type | Examples |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Last two digits of year of formal acceptance of transit movement (YY) | Numeric 2 | 97 |
2 | Identifier of the country from which movement originates (ISO alpha 2 country code) | Alphabetic 2 | IT |
3 | Unique identifier for transit movement per year and country | Alphanumeric 13 | 9876AB8890123 |
4 | Check digit | Alphanumeric 1 | 5 |
Field 1 and 2 as explained above.
Field 3 has to be filled in with an identifier for the transit transaction. The way that field is used is under the responsibility of National Administrations but each transit transaction handled during one year within the given country must have a unique number.
National Administrations that want to have the office reference number of the customs authorities included in the MRN, could use up to the first 6 characters to insert the national number of the office.
Field 4 has to be filled with a value that is a check digit for the whole MRN. This field allows for the detection of an error when capturing the whole MRN.
The “MRN” shall also be printed in bar code mode using the standard “code 128”, character set “B”.
Box 3:
first subdivision: serial number of the current printed sheet,
second subdivision: total number of sheets printed (incl. list of items),
shall not be used when there is only one item.
In the space to the right of box 8:
Name and address of the customs office to which the return copy of the transit accompanying document has to be returned where the fallback procedure is used.
Box C:
the name of the office of departure,
reference number of the office of departure,
acceptance date of the transit declaration,
the name and the authorisation number of the authorised consignor (if any).
Box D:
control results,
seals affixed or the indication “- -” identifying the “Waiver — 99201”,
the indication “Binding itinerary”, where appropriate.
The transit accompanying document shall not be modified nor shall any addition or deletion be made thereto unless otherwise specified in this Regulation.
Formalities en route
Between the time when the goods leave the office of departure and the time they arrive at the office of destination, certain details may have to be added on the transit accompanying document accompanying the goods. The details relate to the transport operation and must be entered by the carrier responsible for the means of transport on which the goods are loaded as and when the corresponding activities are carried out. The particulars may be added legibly by hand, in which case the entries should be made in ink and in block letters.
Carriers are reminded that goods can be transhipped only under an authorisation of the customs authorities of the country in whose territory the transhipment is to be made.
Where those authorities consider that the Community transit operation concerned may continue in the normal way they shall, once they have taken any steps that may be necessary, endorse the transit accompanying documents.
The customs authorities at the office of transit or office of destination, as the case may be, have the obligation to incorporate into the system the added data on the transit accompanying document. The data can also be incorporated by the authorised consignee.
The boxes and activities involved are:
Transhipment: use box 55.
Box 55: Transhipment
The carrier must complete the first three lines of this box when goods are transhipped from one means of transport to another or from one container to another in the course of the operation in question.
However, where goods are carried in containers that are to be transported by road vehicles, customs authorities may authorise the principal to leave box 18 blank where the logistical pattern at the point of departure may prevent the identity and nationality of the means of transport from being provided at the time of establishment of the transit declaration, and where they can ensure that the proper information concerning the means of transport shall be subsequently entered in box 55.
Other incidents: use box 56.
Box 56: Other incidents during carriage
Box to be completed in accordance with current obligations regarding transit.
In addition, where goods have been loaded on a semi-trailer and the tractor is changed during the journey (without the goods being handled or transhipped), enter in this box the registration number and nationality of the new tractor. In this case, endorsement by the competent authorities is not necessary.”
In Annex 45b of Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93, Chapter II is replaced by the following:
When a movement consists of more than one item, then the sheet A of the list of items shall always be printed by the computer system and shall be attached to the transit accompanying document.
The boxes of the list of items are vertically expandable.
Particulars have to be printed as follows:
In the identification box (upper left corner):
list of items;
serial number of the current sheet and the total number of the sheets (including the transit accompanying document).
OoDep — name of the office of departure.
Date — acceptance date of the transit declaration.
MRN — movement reference number as defined in Annex 45a
The particulars of the different boxes at item level have to be printed as follows:
item no — serial number of the current item;
regime — if the status of the goods for the whole declaration is uniform, the box is not used;
if mixed consignment, the actual status, T1, T2 or T2F, is printed.”
If necessary, the requested information can be presented in a separate annex to the application form, referring to the box of the form concerned.
Regarding re-exportation, simplified procedures will be applied for where a customs declaration is required.
