LCL Export Customer Advisory: Italy Document Requirements

Effective immediately, CaroTrans requires the following information for all LCL shipments to Italy to be included on the shipping instructions. 
  • 6 Digit HS Code(s)
  • Package count for each HS code
  • Net Weight for each HS code
  • Gross Weight for each HS Code
  • Piece count for each HS Code
  • Goods Description for each HS Code

This is required for customs processing at destination because our containers have to be moved In Bond from the port of arrival (Genoa) to the devanning CFS (Milan).

This information must be broken down by HS Code, so if any shipment has more than one HS code, we need the information for each HS code in the shipment.
