As of the 1st of January 2009, a new regulation came into force in the European Union requiring TIR information to be sent electronically in advance to any EU Customs office of departure/entry. This affects all TIR transport operations entering or starting in the European Union.

In order to enable operators to comply with this requirement, the IRU has developed a web application called IRU TIR-EPD, which allows the submission of TIR electronic Pre-Declarations by the TIR Holders in a simple, standard way. The use of this online application is free of charge for approved TIR Holders.

By using this free application,  transport operators are not forced into using the services of third-parties and ensure the ownership of their commercial data.

This application also allows all TIR Holders to Comply with the Framework of Standards of the World Customs Organisation and to provide the requisite security data in a public / private partnership.

To receive access to the IRU TIR-EPD application, Holders should contact their national Association.

Currently, the countries accepting files generated by the IRU TIR-EPD, with a destination in EU / exit from EU in any country, are:

• Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Latvia and Lithuania.

New countries are joining IRU TIR-EPD regularly !
