IE590 - STEP 3

Step 3 in Sweden’s New Export System: IE590 – Notification of Goods’ Exit

As the final step in Sweden’s new export system, the IE590 message is used to confirm that goods have exited the EU customs territory. After the export declaration (IE515) is approved and the goods have been reported at the export customs office (IE507), IE590 ensures that the export process is completed correctly. Once the IE590 is submitted and approved, the Swedish Customs Authority issues the IE599 message, confirming that the export has been fully finalized.

What is the IE590 Message?

The IE590 message is used to notify the Swedish Customs Authority that goods have exited the EU customs territory. This message is submitted by the carrier or the person responsible for the transport to the export customs office. This step is essential for confirming that the export has been conducted in compliance with customs regulations.

Key Elements of IE590

Reference to Previous Steps: Particularly the MRN (Master Reference Number) from the IE515 export declaration.
Transport and Departure Details: Information about the transport and the departure location.
Confirmation of Export: Verification that the goods have physically exited the EU’s borders.

Once a correct IE590 is submitted and approved by the export customs office, the Swedish Customs Authority issues the IE599 message. This serves as the official confirmation that the entire export process is complete.

The Relationship Between IE590, IE515, IE507, and IE599

IE590 is the third and penultimate step in the export process. It relies on:

A IE515 export declaration that has been approved and released.
A IE507 notification that has been registered at the export customs office.

After the IE590 is submitted, the Swedish Customs Authority sends back a IE599 message. This final message acts as a receipt confirming that the export has been fully completed and that all customs formalities have been finalized.
