Entry in the Declarant's Records (EIDR)
Simplified procedure allowing the declarant to enter goods in their records instead of lodging a customs declaration.
The Entry in the Declarant's Records (EIDR) procedure is the most advanced customs simplification. It allows the authorised operator to clear goods by simply entering them in their commercial records, without lodging a customs declaration at the time of import or export.
Goods are considered declared upon their entry in the operator's records, without physical presentation at the customs office. A supplementary declaration is then lodged according to the periodicity defined in the authorisation (daily, weekly, monthly).
This procedure is reserved for the most reliable operators, generally holding AEOC status. Granting conditions are strict: integrated accounting system enabling precise flow tracking, absence of infringements, and ability to comply with supplementary declaration obligations.
EIDR is particularly suited to businesses with regular and high-volume goods flows (automotive, electronics, agrifood industries). It enables significant reduction of clearance times and administrative costs while maintaining the traceability necessary for customs controls.
