TRANSIT/SECURITY ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENT (TSAD) U.K.

CHAPTER I U.K. Specimen of the Transit/Security Accompanying Document

CHAPTER II U.K. Explanatory notes and particulars (data) for the Transit/Security Accompanying Document

The acronym “BCP” (Business continuity plan) used in this Chapter refers to situations in which the fallback procedure defined in Article 340b(7) applies.

The Transit/Security Accompanying Document contains data valid for the whole of the declaration.

The information contained in the Transit/Security Accompanying Document shall be based on data derived from the transit declaration; where necessary, that information will be amended by the principal and/or verified by the office of departure.

The paper to be used for the Transit/Security Accompanying Document can be of green colour.

In addition to the provisions in the explanatory notes of Annexes 30A, 37 and 38, particulars have to be printed as follows:

1. MRN (MOVEMENT REFERENCE NUMBER): U.K.

The MRN is to be printed on the first page and on all lists of items except where these forms are used in the context of the BCP in which cases no MRN is allocated.

The information is alphanumerical and comprises 18 characters following the prescriptions below:

Field	Content	Field type	Examples
1	Last two digits of year of formal acceptance of the transit declaration (YY)	Numeric 2	06
2	Identifier of the country where the movement originates (alpha 2 country code)	Alphabetic 2	RO
3	Unique identifier for transit movement per year and country	Alphanumeric 13	9876AB8890123
4	Check digit	Alphanumeric 1	5

Fields 1 and 2 as explained above.

Field 3 shall 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 shall be filled with a value that is a check digit for the whole MRN. This field allows for 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”.

2. BOX SEC. DECL. (S00): U.K.

9. FORMALITIES EN ROUTE U.K.

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/Security 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/Security 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/Security Accompanying Document. The data can also be incorporated by the authorised consignee.

The boxes and activities involved are:

10. TRANSHIPMENT: USE BOX 55 U.K.

Box Transhipment (55):

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.

11. OTHER INCIDENTS: USE BOX 56 U.K.

Box Other incidents during carriage (56):

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.”
