Key changes with AES:
- New data requirements: New data requirements are being introduced for export, shipment and re-export after storage in a customs warehouse.
- Transition period: The transition from the current PLDA Export system to the new Automated Export System (AES) is currently in a transition phase that started on 19/06/24 and will run until 30/09/2024.
- Commodity codes: Pay extra attention to the correct use of commodity codes, especially for re-export after storage in a customs warehouse.
