Scaling Up and Go-Live of the Inbound Release Platform

Over the past months, the IRP project team, together with customers, has extensively tested the platform in various operational scenarios. We have established that not only does the Inbound Release Platform work properly from a technical and functional perspective, but also that the integration with CPu and the various relevant customs systems functions as intended.

 

This means we can move on to the next step: a full go-live.

In the coming weeks, the IRP project team will, in consultation with customers, scale up volumes for all segments (containers, RORO, ferry, and breakbulk). Initially, this will be done with transshipment volumes, added with import shipments. This will allow the community to get used to this new way of working and, from 1 December 2025, also fully register local shipments in PN/TS. This means that everyone involved in the declaration process where maritime cargo manifests are discharged will, from then on, be dealing with TSD cargo manifests. We therefore once again strongly recommend that all these companies prepare thoroughly.

 

The billing for the Inbound Release Platform will, in accordance with the general terms and conditions, start for all users as from December 2025. For 2025, 1/12 of the fixed subscription amounts normally invoiced annually will be charged.
