We would like to share an update on the Import Control System 2 regulations as a follow up to our previous communication which can be Read here.

As communicated earlier, the Import Control System 2 – Phase 2 regulations had a deployment window open from 4th December 2024 and the mandatory phase for the layered house filing will be made mandatory from 1st April 2025. All the vessel sailings from the respective Compliance load port on and after 1st April 2025 will require the additional declaration interms of House and Buyer and Seller declarations. We would like to reiterate the requirements under Phase 2 regulations and below guidelines will help you to share the required information with Maersk to ensure the compliance and smooth loading of your cargo.

The ICS2 Phase 2 layered filing is required only when the place of delivery of the cargo is a European Union Country. The layered filing is not required for the transshipment and freight remaining onboard cargo with place of delivery as Non-EU Country.

The Phase 2 implementations focus on the layered filing for both Direct (BCO) Customers and Forwarders. We have outlined below the requirements for both the customer segmentation:

  1. Direct Customers In case there are any other parties involved in a shipment which are other than Shipper and Consignee listed on bill of lading, there is a need to layered filing. This can be made in 2 ways:
    • Buyer and Seller information can be shared with Maersk. We will include that along with Master BOL information and submit the Full ENS Manifest (F10).
    • Buyer and Seller information can be shared directly with EU Customs system via F17 (Self-filing). In this case, we require you to provide the EORI-Next Filing party in EU who will be responsible for doing the self-filing. Maersk will then perform the partial ENS Manifest submission (F13)

    Shipments with Consignee as “TO ORDER” we require the EORI number of the First Notify Party.

  2. Forwarders Submission of House BOLs are required when a forwarder is listed on the bill of lading as Shipper or Consignee. The House BOL declarations to EU Customs can be made in 2 ways:
    • Submission of House Shipper and Consignee details to Maersk. We will include that House information with Master BOL information and submit the Full ENS Manifest (F11)
    • House BOL can be shared directly with EU Customs system via F14/F15 (Self-filing). In this case, we require you to provide the EORI-Next Filing party in EU who will be responsible for doing the self-filing. Maersk will then perform the partial ENS Manifest submission (F12)

We would like to share the operational guidelines which would help you to provide the layered filing details with Maersk for the shipping instructions submitted via different channels.

As communicated earlier, Maersk has rolled out a No Manifest No Load policy. This policy will be in rolled out from 1st April 2025. In case of a ENS declaration missing for a container, the container will not be loaded and will be shifted to the next available vessel.
