Notice to Customers in EU Countries, Northern Ireland, Norway, and Switzerland


Thank you for always using 8mart.

The European Union, Northern Ireland, Norway, and Switzerland (collectively referred to as "EUs" for convenience) have implemented a new customs pre-arrival security program supported by a comprehensive advanced cargo information system, Import Control System 2 (ICS2).
ICS2 is a new IT system designed to collect pre-arrival data on all shipments entering the EUs.
It was first introduced for some air cargo on March 15, 2021, and will be implemented for all air cargo from March 1, 2023.
