ICS2 – How ready are you?
ICS2 – How ready are you?
From 1 January 2026, all goods entering the European Union and Northern Ireland will need to have their safety and security data submitted through the Import Control System 2 (ICS2). The Import Control System Northern Ireland (ICS-NI) will no longer be available. To understand how ready our sector is for this transition, we’re wanting to hear from you whether your business is ready for this change. We also want to better understand any wider problems moving goods into Northern Ireland, to support our work representing RHA members.
Please complete this survey by 5pm on Friday 12 December.
Any data shared externally will be anonymised and aggregated.
