Presentation of Low Value Declaration
In order to facilitate presentation of declarations and make it easier for operators to meet their tax obligations, the Tax Agency's Customs and Excise Duties Department offers taxpayers the possibility of presenting their customs declarations online.
By using a Telecommunications system, and using the EDIFACT standard, the telematic presentation of Low Value Merchandise Declarations is possible.
Procedure
To benefit from the system, authorisation is required, and for this it is necessary to present the corresponding Application to the operator's habitual Customs Office.
The telematic transmission of file EDIFACT /CUSDEC is carried out through the Internet, with the only requirement of having an electronic signature that meets the requirements set forth in Order HAP/800/2014. For more information on obtaining and using it, consult this link .
It is possible to know the status of the telematic sending of a customs declaration, as long as it has been received in the Customs information system. To access the enquiry, you must identify yourself using the digital signature. For security purposes, only tax returns filed by the holder of the certificate can be viewed.
The system establishes the possibility of sending the declaration through messages EDIFACT / CUSDEC. The technical guide for preparing the Low Value Goods Declaration message (CUDEC message with CUSRES response) can be downloaded in PDF format.
