copies 4, 6, 7 and 8 shall have at the right hand edge a broken margin coloured respectively blue, red, green and yellow;
On forms conforming to the specimens shown in appendices B2 and B4, copies 1/6, 2/7, 3/8 and 4/5 shall have at the right hand edge a continuous margin, and to the right of this a broken margin coloured respectively red, green, yellow and blue.
The width of these margins shall be approximately 3 mm. The broken margins shall comprise a series of squares with a side measurement of 3 mm each one separated by 3 mm.
The copies on which the data contained in the forms shown in appendices B1 and B3 must appear by a self-copying process are shown in Appendix B5.The copies on which the data contained in the forms shown in appendices B2 and B4 must appear by a self-copying process are shown in Appendix B6.
where Union legislation refers to a declaration for placing goods under a customs procedure or for re-exportation;
as necessary during the transitional period provided for in an act of accession to the Union, in trade between the Union as constituted prior to that accession and the new Member States, and between the latter, in respect of goods for which customs duties and charges having equivalent effect have not yet been fully eliminated or which remain subject to other measures provided for in the act of accession;
where Union rules specifically provide for their use, in particular within the framework of the Union transit procedure for the transit declaration for travellers and for the fallback procedure.
copy 1 is kept by the authorities of the Member State in which export (dispatch) or Union transit formalities are completed,
copy 2 is used for statistical purposes by the Member State of export. This copy can be used as well for statistical purposes by the Member State of dispatch in cases of trade between parts of the customs territory of the Union with a different fiscal regime,
copy 3 is returned to the exporter after being stamped by the customs authority,
copy 4 is kept by the office of destination upon completion of the Union transit operation or as the document providing evidence of the customs status of Union goods,
copy 5 is the return copy for the Union transit procedure,
copy 6 is kept by the authorities of the Member State in which import formalities are completed,
copy 7 is used for statistical purposes by the Member State of import. This copy can be used as well for statistical purposes by the Member State of import in cases of trade between parts of the customs territory of the Union with a different fiscal regime,
copy 8 is returned to the consignee.
Various combinations are therefore possible, such as:
export, outward processing or re-export: copies 1, 2 and 3,
Union transit: copies 1, 4 and 5,
customs procedures at import: copies 6, 7 and 8.
Each subset must be designed in such a way that where boxes must contain identical information in the two Member States involved, such information can be entered directly by the exporter or the holder of the procedure on copy 1 and will then appear, by means of chemical treatment of the paper, on all the copies. Where, however, for any reason (in particular where the content of the information differs according to the stage of the operation involved) the information is not to be transmitted from one Member State to another, the desensitisation of the self-copying paper must confine reproduction to the copies concerned.
Where declarations are to be processed by computer, use may be made of subsets taken from sets in which each copy has a dual function: 1/6, 2/7, 3/8, 4/5.
In this case, in each subset, the numbers of the copies being used must be shown by striking through the numbers, in the margin of the form, referring to the copies not being used.
Every such subset must be designed so that the particulars which have to appear on each copy will be reproduced by means of chemical treatment of the paper.
the colour used for printing,
the use of italic characters,
the printing of a background for the Union transit boxes.
Where a transit declaration is processed at an office of departure by a computerised system, one copy of the declaration must be lodged at that office.
The forms contain a number of boxes only some of which will be used, depending on the customs procedure(s) in question.
Without prejudice to the application of simplified procedures, the boxes which may be completed for each procedure are set out in the following table. The specific provisions concerning each box as they are described in Title II apply without prejudice to the status of the boxes as defined in the table.
Note that the status listed below have no bearing on the fact that certain particulars are collected only where circumstances warrant it. For example, the supplementary units in box 41 (status ‘A’) will only be collected where required by the TARIC.

Whenever a particular subset contains one or more copies which may be used in a Member State other than the one in which it was first completed, the forms must be completed by typewriter or by a mechanographical or similar process. For ease of completion by typewriter the form should be inserted in the machine in such a way that the first letter of the particulars to be entered in box 2 is placed in the position box in the top left-hand corner.
Where all the copies of a subset are intended for use in the same Member State, they may be filled in legibly by hand, in ink and in block capitals, provided that this is allowed in that Member State. The same applies to the particulars to be given on the copies used for the purposes of the Union transit procedure.
The form must contain no erasures or overwriting. Any alterations must be made by crossing out the incorrect particulars and adding those required. Any alterations made in this way must be initialled by the person making them and expressly endorsed by the competent authorities. The latter may, where necessary, require a new declaration to be lodged.
In addition, the forms may be completed using an automatic reproduction process instead of any of the procedures mentioned above. They may also be produced and completed by this means on condition that the provisions concerning the specimen forms, format, language used, legibility, absence of erasures and overwriting, and amendments are strictly observed.
Only numbered boxes are to be completed, as appropriate, by operators. The other boxes, identified by a capital letter, are for administrative use.

Any amounts to be entered in this box are to be expressed in the currency unit the code for which may appear in box 44, or, in the absence of such a code in box 44, in the currency of the Member State where the import formalities are completed.
Enter the statistical value expressed in the currency unit the code for which may appear in box 44, or, in the absence of such a code in box 44, in the currency of the Member State where the import formalities are completed, in accordance with the Union provisions in force.
Enter the tax base applicable (value, weight or other). Using, where necessary, the relevant Union codes from Appendix D1, the following should be shown on each line:
the type of tax (e.g. import duty, VAT),
the tax base,
the rate of tax applicable,
the amount of tax payable,
the method of payment chosen (MP).
The amounts in this box must be expressed in the currency unit the code for which may appear in box 44, or, in the absence of such a code in box 44, in the currency of the Member State where the import formalities are completed.
Enter, where applicable, the reference particulars of the authorisation in question; deferred payment here refers both to deferred payment of customs duties and to tax credit.
Using the relevant Union code from Appendix D1, enter the reference particulars of the warehouse.
Enter the place and date of the completion of the declaration.
Subject to specific provisions to be adopted with regard to the use of computerised systems, the original of the handwritten signature of the person concerned must be given on the copy which is to remain at the office of import, followed by the full name of that person. Where that person is a legal person, the signatory should add his capacity after his signature and full name.
Continuation forms should only be used where the declaration covers more than one item (cf. box 5). They must be presented together with an IM, EX, EU or CO form.
The instructions in Titles I and II also apply to the continuation forms.
However:
the symbols ‘IM/c’, ‘EX/c’ or ‘EU/c’ (or ‘CO/c’ where applicable) must be entered in the first subdivision of box 1, that subdivision being left blank only where:
the form is used for Union transit only, in which case, depending on the Union transit procedure applicable to the goods concerned, ‘T1bis’, ‘T2bis’, ‘T2Fbis’ or ‘T2SMbis’ will be entered in the third subdivision of box 1,
the form is used solely to furnish proof of the customs status of Union goods, in which case, depending on the status of the goods concerned, ‘T2Lbis’, ‘T2LFbis’ or ‘T2LSMbis’ will be entered in the third subdivision of the box,
box 2/8 is for optional use by the Member States and should show only the name and identification number, if any, of the person concerned,
the ‘summary’ part of box 47 concerns the final summary of all the items covered by the IM and IM/c, ex and EX/c, EU and EU/c or CO and CO/c forms used. It should therefore be used only on the last of the IM/c, EX/c, EU/c or CO/c forms attached to an IM, EX, EU or CO document in order to show the total payable by type of tax.
If continuation forms are used,
any boxes 31 (Packages and description of goods) which have not been used must be struck out to prevent later use,
when the third subdivision of box 1 contains the symbol T, boxes 32 (Item number), 33 (Commodity code), 35 (Gross mass (kg)), 38 (Net mass (kg)), 40 (Summary declaration/previous document) and 44 (Additional information, documents produced, certificates and authorisations) of the first item of goods of the transit declaration used must be struck through and the first box 31 (Packages and description of goods) of this document may not be used to enter the marks, numbers, number and kind of packages or goods description. In the first box 31 of this document, reference will be made, as appropriate, to the number of continuation forms bearing the respective symbols T1bis, T2bis or T2Fbis.
The EDI transit declaration is based upon the particulars entered into the different boxes of the Single Administrative Document (SAD) as defined in appendices C1 and D1, in association with or replaced by a code if appropriate.
This Appendix contains exclusively the basic special requirements, which apply when the formalities are carried out by the exchange of the EDI standard messages. Furthermore the additional codes presented in Appendix D2 are applicable. Appendices C1 and D1) apply to the EDI transit declaration unless otherwise specified in this Appendix or in Appendix D2.
The detailed structure and content of the EDI transit declaration follow the technical specifications the competent authorities communicate to the holder of the procedure in order to ensure the proper functioning of the system. These specifications are based upon the requirements laid down in this Appendix.
This Appendix describes the structure of the information exchange. The transit declaration is organised into data groups, which contain data attributes. The attributes are grouped together in such a way that they build up coherent logical blocks within the scope of the message. A data group indentation indicates that the data group depends on a lower indent data group.
When present, the appropriate number of the box on the SAD is noted.
The term ‘number’ in the explanation of a data group indicates how many times the data group may be used in the transit declaration.
The term ‘type/length’ in the explanation of an attribute indicates the requirements for the data type and the data length. The codes for the data types are as follows:
alphabetic
numeric
alphanumeric
The number following the code indicates the admissible data length. The following applies.
The optional two dots before the length indicator mean that the data has no fixed length, but it can have up to a number of digits, as specified by the length indicator. A comma in the data length means that the attribute can hold decimals, the digit before the comma indicates the total length of the attribute, the digit after the comma indicates the maximum number of digits after the decimal point.

To be completed using the headings of the Combined Nomenclature.
Where the form is used for Union transit procedure purposes, the commodity code made up of at least the six digits of the Harmonised Commodity Description and Coding System shall be entered in this subdivision. However, where Union legislation so requires, the Combined Nomenclature heading shall be used.
To be completed in accordance with the Taric code (two characters for the application of specific Union measures in respect of formalities to be completed at destination).
To be completed in accordance with the Taric code (first additional code).
To be completed in accordance with the Taric code (second additional code).
Codes to be adopted by the Member States concerned.
Use the country codes entered in box 2.
Codes to be adopted by the Member States.
This box is for three-digit codes comprising a single-digit component from 1) and a two-digit component from 2).
The relevant codes are given below:
First digit of the code
Tariff arrangement erga omnes
Generalised System of Preferences (GSP)
Tariff preferences other than those mentioned under code 2
Customs duties under the provisions of customs union agreements concluded by the European Union
Next two digits
None of the following
Tariff suspension
Tariff suspension with specified end-use
Tariff suspension with certificate confirming the special nature of the product
Temporary suspension for products imported with a certificate of airworthiness
Tariff quota(15)
Tariff quota with specified end-use(15)
Tariff quota with certificate confirming the special nature of the product(15)
Tariff quota following outward processing(15)
Special end-use resulting from the Common Customs Tariff
Certificate confirming the special nature of the product
The codes to be entered in this subdivision are four-digit codes, composed of a two-digit code representing the procedure requested, followed by a second two-digit code representing the previous procedure. The list of two-digit codes is given below.
‘Previous procedure’ means the procedure under which the goods were placed before being placed under the procedure requested.
It should be noted that where the previous procedure is a warehousing procedure or temporary admission, or where the goods have come from a free zone, the relevant code should be used only where the goods have not been placed under a special procedure (inward processing, outward processing).
For example: re-export of goods imported under the customs inward processing procedure and subsequently placed under the customs warehousing procedure = 3151 (not 3171). (First operation = 5100; second operation = 7151: re-export = 3151).
Similarly, where goods previously temporarily exported are re-imported, placing under one of the abovementioned suspensive procedures is to be regarded as simple importation under that procedure. Indication of the ‘re-importation’ aspect is to be given only when the goods are released for free circulation.
For example: entry for home use with simultaneous entry for free circulation of goods exported under the customs outward processing procedure and placed under a customs warehousing procedure on re-importation = 6121 (not 6171). (First operation: temporary export for outward processing = 2100; second operation: storage in customs warehouse = 7121; third operation: entry for home use + entry for free circulation = 6121).
The codes marked in the list below with the letter (a) cannot be used as the first two digits of the procedure code, but only to indicate the previous procedure.
For example: 4054 = entry for free circulation and home use of goods previously placed under the inward processing in another Member State.
List of procedures for coding purposes
Two of these basic elements must be combined to produce a four-digit code.
This code is used to indicate that there is no previous procedure (a)
Free circulation of goods simultaneously redispatched in the context of trade between parts of the customs territory of the Union in which the provisions of Directive 2006/112/EC are applicable and parts of that territory in which these provisions do not apply, or in the context of trade between the parts of that territory where these provisions do not apply.
Free circulation of goods simultaneously redispatched in the context of trade between the Union and the countries with which it has formed a customs union.
Example: Goods arriving from a third country, released for free circulation in France and sent on to the Channel Islands.
Free circulation of goods with a view to applying the inward processing procedure (drawback system). (a)
Explanation: Inward processing (drawback system) in accordance with Article 256 of the Code.
Free circulation with simultaneous placing of goods under a warehousing procedure other than a customs warehousing procedure.
Explanation: This code is to be used where the goods are released for free circulation but where VAT and possibly excise duties have not been paid.U.K.
Examples: Imported machines are released for free circulation but VAT has not been paid. While the goods are placed in a tax warehouse or approved area, payment of the VAT is suspended.U.K.
Imported cigarettes are released for free circulation but VAT and excise duties have not been paid. While the goods are stored in a tax warehouse or approved area, payment of the VAT and excise duties is suspended.

This box is for alphanumeric (an..26) codes.
Each code has three components, which are separated by dashes (-). The first component (a1) consists of three different letters and is used to distinguish between the three categories mentioned below. The second component (an..3), which consists of a combination of digits and/or letters, serves to identify the type of document. The third component (an..20) represents the particulars needed to recognise the document, either its identification number or another recognisable reference.
the summary declaration, represented by ‘X’,
the initial declaration, represented by ‘Y’
the previous document, represented by ‘Z’,
Choose the abbreviation for the document from the ‘list of abbreviations for documents’.
This list includes the code ‘CLE’, which stands for ‘date and reference of the entry of the goods in the records’. (Article 182 of the Code). The date is coded as follows: yyyymmdd.
The identification number or another recognisable reference of the document is inserted here.
The previous document is a T1 transit document to which the office of destination has assigned the number ‘238544’. The code will therefore be ‘Z-821-238544’. (‘Z’ for previous document, ‘821’ for the transit procedure and ‘238544’ for the document's registration number (or the MRN for the NCTS operations)).
A cargo manifest bearing the number ‘2222’ is used as a summary declaration. The code will be ‘X-785-2222’. (‘X’ for the summary declaration, ‘785’ for the cargo manifest and ‘2222’ for the manifest's identification number).
Goods were entered in the records on 14 February 2002. The code will therefore be ‘Y-CLE-20020214-5’ (‘Y’ to show there was an initial declaration, ‘CLE’ for ‘entry in the records’, ‘20020214’ for the date of entry, ‘2002’ being the year, ‘02’ the month, ‘14’ the day and ‘5’ for the reference of the entry in the records).
