Exit summary declaration

An exit summary declaration is submitted

• for goods that have been in temporary storage for more than 14 days (transit goods exiting the customs territory of the Union that will not be placed under a customs procedure)

The loading can begin when the status of the exit summary declaration has changed to “Permission to load given”. 
The declarant, that is, the carrier or their representative, is responsible for submitting the exit summary declaration and for the correctness of the details provided in the declaration.
