Italy Advances Customs Processes with Mandatory Digital Declarations System

  • Italy is implementing a new digital system for customs declarations starting December 2, 2024, for exports and January 21, 2025, for transit
  • Businesses must use this system which involves XML message exchanges with specific structures for different operations
  • The system requires electronic signatures and digital archiving in compliance with Italian tax authority regulations
  • EDICOM supports these digital procedures by integrating ERP systems with APIs from the Italian Customs Agency
  • Since June 2022, Italy requires electronic submissions of customs declarations for imports
  • The digitization process includes exports and transit of goods, aligning with the European Customs Data Model
  • The European Union’s ICS2 project aims to enhance security for imported goods by requiring data submission before goods arrive in the EU
  • The transition to digital customs workflows is part of the adoption of the Union Customs Code, EU Regulation 952/2013
