Implementation of the ECTN in South Sudan as from April 1st 2019

For all shipments to and from South Sudan (transit cargo included), the shipper or his forwarder is required to apply an ECTN in the port of loading and submit for validation.

Each Bill of Lading must be covered by at least one ECTN and its unique number needs to be inserted in the Bill of Lading and Cargo Manifest under penalty of fines for the shipping line.

Cargoes arriving without a valid ECTN will be blocked for delivery by the local customs in South Sudan.

南苏丹ECTN项目于2019年4月1日起正式执行

自2019年4月1日起,所有运往南苏丹国家的海运货物(包括转运),发货人或者船运代理人都必须在起运港申请办理对应的ECTN清关证书。

船运提单上必须显示对应的ECTN号码,否则货物到港后,将面临目的港海关的高额罚金处罚。

未能提前按时办理ECTN证书的货物,将无法在目的港顺利清关。
