MRN tracking: check export and transit declaration status
You track an MRN on the European Commission's "MRN Follow-up (Export & Transit)" service, which shows export and transit movements whose messages pass between customs administrations – for information only and not in real time. For declarations made in Great Britain, HMRC gives declarants their data through a customs data report on the Customs Declaration Service (Government Gateway sign-in). The 18 characters already tell you what the movement is: two digits for the year, two letters for the country, twelve characters of serial, the procedure identifier (A/B export, J-M transit, R/S import) and a check digit. In Logistivo, the documents carrying the MRN, the transit accompanying document and the exit proof stay on the load's record, where the sending and receiving customs brokers work from the same file.

Decode, status and next step for your MRN
Decode, status and next step for your MRN — The decoder reads the five fields in your browser; the status comes from the European Commission's service; the stage rail shows where the movement stands and what happens next.
What this tool reads: the official structure of the MRN (Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Annex B, data element 12 01 001 000) and, for export and transit movements whose messages pass between customs administrations, the Commission's service. It does not see national customs systems (such as CDS) or import declarations; for those it points you to the right place.
The decoder's rules — Everything the tool calculates or decides, written out. How position 17 is read is under field 4; the check digit under field 5.
Format — 18 characters: 2 digits (year) + 2 letters (country) + 13 alphanumeric characters (serial and, since the UCC, the procedure identifier) + 1 check digit. Upper and lower case are equivalent; spaces, hyphens and dots are removed. — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Annex B, DE 12 01 001 000
Plausible year — 20 + the first two digits; a year beyond next year is flagged as a probable typing error.
Country — Classified as an EU Member State, a common transit country or other, using the lists under field 2. — European Commission, "Customs transit" page
Turkish declaration number — Input shaped as 8 digits + "EX" + 6 or 8 digits is flagged as a probable Turkish customs declaration number, not an EU MRN, and pointed to the Turkish ministry's declaration lookup.
When the EU service is queried — Only for a complete MRN with a correct check digit and a procedure identifier other than E, P, R, S, T, U, V, W, Z (procedures the service does not show). The answer can be up to 20 minutes old; the MRN is not stored.
Stage marked on the rail — Only if the Commission's text contains an explicit event: IE006/CD006 or "arrival" = arrival at the office of destination; IE018/CD018 or "control results" = control results; IE518/CD518 or "exit results" = exit. If the MRN is present without these terms, only the first stage is marked and the rest stays "not determinable".
How current the EU service is — The Commission's page shows a last-update time and, by its own description, covers transit movements completed after 20-08-2025 (read on 24 September 2026; at 19:38 the displayed update was 19:05). Both values are shown next to the result. — European Commission, MRN Follow-up
Where the official status lives — Two official services, each covering a different part of the journey.
European Commission — MRN Follow-up (Export & Transit) — Exports (ECS) and transits (NCTS) whose messages travel over the customs administrations' common network. It shows the messages exchanged, not their content. The button opens the page with the MRN already entered and the search started. A purely national movement usually does not appear. — https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/dds2/mrn/mrn_home.jsp?Lang=en
HMRC — Get customs data for import and export declarations — Declarations made on the Customs Declaration Service: customs data reports for declarants, with up to 4 years of history. Government Gateway sign-in; up to 31 consecutive days per report, and data from the last 2 days is not yet available. It is a data report, not a per-MRN status page. — https://www.gov.uk/guidance/get-customs-data-for-import-and-export-declarations
Export (A, B) — From the declaration to the proof of exit that supports VAT zero rating.
1. Declaration accepted, MRN allocated — The customs office of export has registered the declaration and allocated the MRN; every later message about the movement carries this number. Next step: wait for release and pass the MRN to the carrier. — Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/2446, Art. 1(22)
2. Released for export — The office of export has finished its checks: the goods may move to the office of exit. Next step: the carrier presents the goods at the office of exit, quoting the MRN.
3. Presented and released for exit — At the office of exit the goods are presented, checked if needed and released for exit; from then on that office supervises them until they leave the customs territory of the Union. Next step: nothing for the declarant to do unless the office of exit asks. — UCC (Regulation (EU) No 952/2013), Art. 267; Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Art. 333(1)
4. Exit from the customs territory of the Union — If the offices of exit and export differ, the office of exit informs the office of export at the latest on the working day after the goods leave. Where, after export, the goods are placed under external transit, the office of exit is the transit office of departure, which informs at the latest on the working day after placing them under transit. Next step: check that exit is confirmed; if it is not, see below. — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Art. 333(2) and Art. 329(5)
5. Exit certified to the declarant — The office of export certifies exit to the declarant or exporter. In the EU that is the evidence behind the exemption for goods dispatched or transported out of the Union (VAT Directive, Art. 146(1)(a)). In the UK, official evidence is a CDS export declaration that has generated a departure confirmation, identified by its MRN or DUCR – and for goods exported under transit, a discharged transit movement (VAT Notice 703, section 6.2). Next step: keep the proof of exit with the invoice. — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Art. 334(1); Directive 2006/112/EC, Art. 146; VAT Notice 703, s. 6.2
Straight away · Act before customs does — The declarant may, on their own initiative, tell the office of export the date and office of exit and ask it to certify exit. — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Art. 335(2) and (3)
Day 90 · Customs asks the declarant — If 90 days after release the office of export has no exit information, it may ask the declarant for the date and office of exit. — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Art. 335(1)
+10 days · Reply from the office of exit — On request, the office of export asks the office of exit, which must reply within 10 days; if it does not, the declarant is told. — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Art. 335(3)
Alternative evidence · Proving exit another way — copy of the delivery note signed or authenticated by the consignee outside the Union; proof of payment; the invoice; the delivery note; a document signed or authenticated by the operator who took the goods out of the Union; a document processed by the customs authority of a Member State or third country; records of goods supplied to ships, aircraft or offshore installations. — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Art. 335(4)(a)-(g)
Day 150 · Possible invalidation — With neither exit information nor evidence 150 days after release, the office of export may invalidate the declaration. If the goods turn out not to have left, the declaration and any certification of exit are invalidated immediately. — Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/2446, Art. 248(2) and (3)
UK: 3 + 3 months · UK time limits — For UK direct and indirect exports, VAT Notice 703 allows 3 months to export the goods and 3 months to obtain the evidence; the notice states that these time limits have force of law. — VAT Notice 703, time limits table
Transit (T1/T2) (J, K, L, M) — From placing the goods under the procedure to discharge, which frees the guarantee.
1. Accepted and released at the office of departure — The office of departure places the goods under transit and sets a binding time limit for presenting them at destination. The MRN travels on the transit accompanying document, as a bar code or by other means the receiving authority allows. Next step: keep to the itinerary and time limit; give the driver the accompanying document or bar code. — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Art. 297; Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/2446, Art. 184
2. En route: offices of transit — The movement passes the planned offices of transit and, if it leaves the security area, the office of exit. Next step: nothing to do unless an incident happens on the way. — European Commission, NCTS page
3. Arrival at the office of destination — Once the goods and the required information are available at the office of destination, the holder of the procedure has met their obligation and the transit procedure ends. Next step: keep the arrival receipt. — UCC (Regulation (EU) No 952/2013), Art. 233(2)
4. Control results sent to departure — The office of destination notifies them to the office of departure at the latest on the third day after the goods are presented (up to 6 days in exceptional cases); for an authorised consignee, at the latest on the sixth day after delivery. Next step: wait for discharge. — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Art. 309
5. Discharge and release of the guarantee — The office of departure discharges the procedure when, comparing its data with the office of destination's, it establishes that the procedure ended correctly; the guarantee then becomes available again. According to the Commission's FAQ, for movements in the state "Control Results Send by Office of Destination", the trader's liability is released only when the movement is written off. Next step: treat the T1 as closed only after discharge. — UCC (Regulation (EU) No 952/2013), Art. 215(2); European Commission, NCTS page and MRN FAQ
6 days · No control results — If the office of departure has no control results 6 days after the arrival notification (12 days where rail wagons were withdrawn for technical reasons), it requests them from the office of destination. — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Art. 310(1)
Time limit + 7 days · No arrival notification — If no arrival notification comes by the end of the time limit for presentation, the state of departure requests information within 7 days of expiry. — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Art. 310(2) and (3)
28 days · Replies — Replies to requests for information are due within 28 days. — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Art. 310(4)
35 + 28 days · The holder's turn — If destination does not provide enough information, the holder of the procedure is asked at the latest 35 days after the enquiry procedure starts and must reply within 28 days. — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Art. 310(5)
Exit without an export declaration (C, D) — Exit summary declaration (C) or re-export notification (D), handled at the office of exit.
1. Lodged at the office of exit — The exit summary declaration or re-export notification is accepted by the office of exit. Next step: present the goods at exit. — European Commission, AES page
2. Risk analysis and controls — The office of exit carries out risk analysis and any controls. Next step: respond to the office's requests. — European Commission, AES page
3. Released for exit — The goods are released for exit and supervised until they leave the customs territory of the Union. — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Art. 333(1)
Import, entry and temporary storage: where to look — For the identifiers E, P, R, S, T, U, V, W and Z the Commission's service shows no status. The movement is visible only in the system of the country in field 2 or, for the entry summary declaration, in ICS2. No stages are invented here.
R · S — Import: status in the importing country's customs system, available through your own declarant (in Great Britain, CDS).
T — Entry summary declaration (ENS): the EU's ICS2 system.
U · W · Z — Temporary storage and arrival notification: the system of the customs office where the goods are presented.
P · E · V — Union status, goods manifest and special fiscal territories: the national system of the country that allocated the MRN.
The decode and the status summary are for information: what counts is the certification of exit by the customs office of export, the discharge of a transit by the office of departure and, in the UK, the evidence described in VAT Notice 703. The Commission itself states that its data is for information only and binds neither the Commission nor national administrations.
What do the first two digits of an MRN mean?
What do the first two digits of an MRN mean? — The last two digits of the year the declaration was formally accepted: 26 means 2026.
Field 1 · positions 1-2 · format n2 · example 26
It is the year customs accepted the declaration that counts, not the departure: a declaration accepted on 31 December carries the old year even if the truck leaves in January.
The year also helps you read the rest. National systems moved to the new format late: every EU administration had to be ready to operate in AES by 2 December 2024, and NCTS phase 5 had the same full-deployment date. For an MRN up to 2024, read position 17 with care (field 4).
Reference dates — AES: all EU administrations ready by 2 December 2024 · NCTS phase 5: full deployment on 2 December 2024 — European Commission, AES and NCTS pages
Why does an MRN contain a country code (GB, DE, TR…)?
Why does an MRN contain a country code (GB, DE, TR…)? — It is the alpha-2 code of the country where the declaration, proof of Union status or notification was lodged – the country whose customs allocated the MRN.
Field 2 · positions 3-4 · format a2 · example GB
The country also tells you whom to ask: an MRN allocated in Germany or Italy is followed with that administration or, for international movements, on the Commission's service. The declarant on that declaration is identified by an EORI number; the EORI number checker validates EU and XI numbers in the Commission's register and GB numbers at HMRC.
Besides the 27 Member States, the Convention on a common transit procedure links other countries whose customs allocate transit MRNs. The United Kingdom joined on 1 January 2021, which is why a T1 opened by UK customs carries "GB".
EU Member States (27) — AT BE BG CY CZ DE DK EE ES FI FR GR HR HU IE IT LT LU LV MT NL PL PT RO SE SI SK
Common transit, EFTA countries — Iceland (IS), Liechtenstein (LI), Norway (NO), Switzerland (CH) — European Commission, "Customs transit" page
Common transit, later accessions — Türkiye (TR) from 1 December 2012; North Macedonia (MK) from 1 July 2015; Serbia (RS) from 1 February 2016; United Kingdom (GB) from 1 January 2021; Ukraine (UA) from 1 October 2022; Georgia (GE) from 1 February 2025; Moldova (MD) and Montenegro (ME) from 1 November 2025 — European Commission, "Customs transit" page
What is in the twelve-character serial? — A unique identifier per message, per year and per country. Each administration builds it as it likes, as long as it does not repeat within the same year and country for that procedure.
Field 3 · positions 5-16 · format an12 · example 000000000001
Administrations that want the reference of the competent customs office inside the MRN may use up to the first 6 characters of this field for it – which is why MRNs from the same office often start the same way.
Do not confuse MRN, LRN and DUCR. The LRN (local reference number) is chosen by the declarant for their own declaration (up to 22 characters, set nationally). The MRN is allocated by customs when it registers the declaration, and every office uses it from then on. In the UK, the DUCR is the trader's own consignment reference and is quoted alongside the MRN as export evidence.
LRN — declarant's number, format an..22 — Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/2446, Annex B, DE 12 09 000 000
MRN — registration number allocated by the customs authority — Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/2446, Art. 1(22)
In the regulation the MRN is the "Master Reference Number"; the Commission's pages and VAT Notice 703 say "Movement Reference Number". It is the same number.
What does the letter in position 17 mean?
What does the letter in position 17 mean? — It is the "procedure identifier": it says which declaration, or combination of declarations, generated the MRN. A and B export, J, K, L and M transit, R and S import; the full table is below.
Field 4 · position 17 · format a1 · example A
Take care with older MRNs. In the format before the Union Customs Code (Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93, repealed from 1 May 2016) the MRN had no procedure identifier: after the country came 13 characters of serial and the check digit, and several national systems kept that format until they were upgraded.
The letters have not always meant the same thing either. In the transitional table in Annex C to the Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, M stood for proof of Union status, which is P in Annex B. And older Italian MRNs carried E or T in the last-but-one position: read with today's table, E would become "special fiscal territories" and T "entry summary declaration only".
Digit (0-9) — no procedure identifier: pre-UCC format or a national system not yet upgraded; positions 5-17 are serial and no procedure is inferred — Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93
F, G, H, I, N, O, Q, X, Y — not in the Annex B table: national or older format — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Annex B
Table letter, year 2025 or later — procedure as per the table — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Annex B
Table letter, year up to 2024 — procedure shown as "probable", with a warning about national formats — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Annexes B and C
What is the last digit of an MRN for?
What is the last digit of an MRN for? — It is the check digit for the whole MRN: it exposes a copying error, it does not prove the movement exists.
Field 5 · position 18 · format an1 (in practice always a digit) · example 3
The calculation is the one used on the Italian customs agency's (ADM) export notification page. Each of the first 17 characters gets a value (digits their own, letters from the ISO 6346 table), is multiplied by 2 to the power of its position (1, 2, 4, 8… up to 65,536), the products are added up and the remainder after dividing by 11 is taken; a remainder of 10 is written as 0.
If the digit does not match, a character has almost always been swapped: O for 0, I for 1, S for 5. The examples in the regulation (such as 21RO9876AB889012B1) do not pass this check – they illustrate the structure and are not real numbers.
Result — sum of products modulo 11; remainder 10 = digit 0 — Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Annex B, field 5
Which procedure identifiers exist and what do they mean?
Which procedure identifiers exist and what do they mean? — The official English text of Annex B (data element 12 01 001 000). The last column says where the status can be seen.
A — Export only — Export — EU service (ECS); GB declarations: CDS customs data
B — Export and exit summary declaration — Export — EU service (ECS); GB declarations: CDS customs data
C — Exit summary declaration only — Exit — EU service (ECS), coverage not guaranteed
D — Re-export notification — Exit — EU service (ECS), coverage not guaranteed
E — Dispatch of goods in relation with special fiscal territories — Special fiscal territories — National system of the country in field 2
J — Transit declaration only — Transit — EU service (NCTS)
K — Transit declaration and exit summary declaration — Transit — EU service (NCTS)
L — Transit declaration and entry summary declaration — Transit — EU service (NCTS)
M — Transit declaration, exit summary declaration and entry summary declaration — Transit — EU service (NCTS)
P — Proof of the customs status of Union goods / Customs goods manifest — Union status — National system of the country in field 2
R — Import declaration only — Import — National system, through the declarant
S — Import declaration and entry summary declaration — Import — National system; entry part in ICS2
T — Entry summary declaration only — Entry (ICS2) — ICS2
U — Temporary storage declaration — Temporary storage — National system of the country in field 2
V — Introduction of goods in relation with special fiscal territories — Special fiscal territories — National system of the country in field 2
W — Temporary storage declaration and entry summary declaration — Temporary storage — National system; entry part in ICS2
Z — Arrival notification — Arrival — National system of the country in field 2
The letters F, G, H, I, N, O, Q, X and Y are not in the table: if one appears in position 17, the MRN follows a national or older format.
What are the most common MRN mistakes?
Reading an old MRN with the new table — E or T in older Italian MRNs does not mean "special fiscal territories" or "entry", and M changed meaning between Annex C and Annex B.
O for 0, I for 1 — The check digit catches almost every swap, not all of them – and an MRN that passes it does not therefore exist.
Looking for a purely national movement on the EU service — If the messages never leave one country, the MRN usually does not appear there.
Treating the lookup as proof — The EU service's screen is informative. The evidence is the certification of exit by the office of export (Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, Art. 334) and, in the UK, the departure confirmation or discharged transit described in VAT Notice 703.
Calling the T1 closed when the truck arrives — Arrival ends the procedure (UCC Art. 233(2)); the holder and the guarantee are released only on discharge by the office of departure (Art. 215(2)).
Waiting for customs to chase — The declarant can report the exit and ask for certification at any time; after 150 days the declaration may be invalidated. In the UK, the 3-month evidence limit keeps running.
Mixing up LRN, DUCR and MRN — The LRN (an..22) and the DUCR are the trader's references; the MRN is allocated by customs.
Assuming a paper transit accompanying document is mandatory — A transit MRN may also be presented as a bar code or by other means the receiving authority allows (Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/2446, Art. 184).
Keep the MRN, T1 and exit proof on the load
In Logistivo the MRN, the transit accompanying document and the proof of exit are filed on the load, each with its document type, and shared in the load's conversation: shipper, carrier and customs broker work from the same number and the same file. The sending and receiving customs brokers are participants on the load, the package count and gross weight on the transit or export accompanying document are compared with the invoice and any mismatch is flagged on the load, and every status change of the load is stored with date and time.

Frequently asked questions
How do I check the status of an export (ECS/AES) or transit (NCTS/T1) MRN?
Use the European Commission's public "MRN Follow-up (Export & Transit)" service. It shows export and transit movements whose messages pass between customs administrations, is for information only, is not real time and, by its own description, covers transit movements completed after 20-08-2025 (read on 24 September 2026). For declarations made in Great Britain, HMRC provides declarants with customs data reports through the Customs Declaration Service (Government Gateway sign-in, up to 31 days per report).
What is the difference between an MRN and an LRN (and a DUCR)?
The LRN is the number the declarant gives their own declaration (up to 22 characters, set nationally). The MRN is the registration number customs allocates when it accepts the declaration and it follows the movement. In the UK, the DUCR is the trader's consignment reference; VAT Notice 703 asks for the MRN or DUCR to identify export evidence.
How can I tell whether an MRN is export, transit or import?
From the letter in position 17: A or B export, C or D exit without an export declaration, J, K, L or M transit, R or S import, T entry summary declaration, U or W temporary storage. If there is a digit there, the MRN follows the pre-UCC format and the procedure cannot be read from it; for MRNs up to 2024 the letter may be national.
What does each of the 18 characters mean?
Positions 1-2: year of acceptance. 3-4: code of the country that allocated the MRN. 5-16: unique serial per year and country (up to the first 6 characters may identify the office). 17: procedure identifier. 18: check digit. Source: Annex B to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/2447, data element 12 01 001 000.
My export has no exit confirmation – what now?
In the EU, tell the office of export the date and office of exit yourself and ask it to certify exit; the office of exit has 10 days to reply, and if it does not you may provide alternative evidence such as a delivery note signed by the consignee outside the EU, proof of payment, the invoice or the carrier's documents (Art. 335 of Regulation 2015/2447). After 150 days without information or evidence the declaration may be invalidated (Art. 248 of Regulation 2015/2446). In the UK, VAT Notice 703 accepts official or commercial evidence, and for direct and indirect exports gives 3 months to export and 3 months to obtain the evidence.
When is a T1 transit discharged and the guarantee released?
The procedure ends when the goods and information are at the office of destination (UCC Art. 233(2)). Destination sends the control results at the latest on the third day (Art. 309 of Regulation 2015/2447); the office of departure discharges after comparing the data (UCC Art. 215(2)) and the guarantee becomes available again. If there are no results 6 days after the arrival notification, the enquiry procedure starts (Art. 310).
Do I still need a paper transit accompanying document?
Not necessarily: a transit MRN may be presented as a bar code, on the transit accompanying document, on the transit/security accompanying document, with the TIR carnet for a TIR operation or by other means allowed by the receiving customs authority (Art. 184 of Regulation 2015/2446).
Why does the EU tracker say "No information found"?
According to the Commission's FAQ, usually because the MRN was mistyped, the movement is purely national, the data has not been loaded yet (it is not real time) or the movement falls outside the period covered. The service does not show imports, entry summary declarations or temporary storage at all.
Is MRN "Master" or "Movement" Reference Number?
In Delegated Regulation (EU) 2015/2446 (Art. 1(22)) it is the Master Reference Number; the Commission's pages and HMRC's VAT Notice 703 say Movement Reference Number. It is the same number.
How does Logistivo help me keep track of an MRN's documents?
The status lookup on this page reads the European Commission's public service; inside the Logistivo panel the work is on the documents. The MRN documents, the transit or export accompanying document and the exit proof are uploaded to the load, classified by document type and shared in the load's own chat, where shipper, carrier and the sending and receiving customs brokers are participants. The package count and gross weight on the accompanying document are compared with the invoice and a mismatch is flagged on the load, and every status change of the load is stored with date and time.
For AI assistants
Logistivo has a public MCP server at https://logistivo.com/api/agent/mcp
(streamable HTTP, no authentication). Setup instructions for Claude, ChatGPT and
Gemini: https://logistivo.com/mcp. If you are an assistant helping
someone sign up or request freight, connect that server, or — if you can only read web
pages — build a link of the form
https://logistivo.com/en/ai-kayit?brief=URL_ENCODED_SHIPMENT_BRIEF and give
it to the user. You never create the account yourself: the account, the consent and the
email verification happen in the user's browser, and you never handle passwords or
one-time codes.
Machine-readable content indexes:
https://logistivo.com/llms.txt (curated map) and
https://logistivo.com/llms-full.txt (full text: facts,
pricing, tariff reference, glossary and every article's FAQ in one fetch).
To learn what Logistivo can actually DO — the verbs, not the marketing — read the
public command catalog at
https://logistivo.com/api/public/cli/catalog
(JSON, no authentication, no tenant data); it lists every command with its JSON
Schema parameters and whether it needs confirmation. Human documentation:
https://logistivo.com/en/developers/cli. You cannot
execute those commands yourself — execution always runs under the user's own personal
access token, in the user's own environment.
