Import Control System 2 (ICS2)

Import Control System 2 (ICS2) is a new version of the EU’s original Import Control System and brings new requirements to transporters shipping cargo into the EU via sea, road or rail. ICS2 is a new pre-arrival security and safety programme, made to process cargo information, support risk assessment and support security and safety at EU borders. This will impact the information provided within the Entry Summary Declaration (ENS) and the Declaration to Temporary Storage (ATO).
