Brief information on “outbound PNR”

* Now the cost of enabling submission of inbound PNR via NACCS is borne by Japanese government.However, MOF understands that this point should be reviewed.Targeted timing of review is FY2018, when the submission of PNR will have to be done not by paper but via NACCS.

Points of modification in NACCS

１．For filing advance air cargo information on MAWB, existing procedure ADM01 will be used. In ADM01 procedure, input conditions for “Consignor/Consignee name and address” will be changed from conditional to mandatory.

２．House Manifest can be filed with new procedure “Advance Air Cargo Manifest Information Registration (House Manifest) (tentative name; HDM01)”.Implementer of HDM01 is airline companies (including those who make a filing on behalf of the captain).

３．House Manifest can be filed using package software (NACCS EDI message), company system (NACCS EDI message or EDIFACT message)or ARINC/SITA network (Cargo-IMP).

４．House Manifest will be registered not to “Air cargo DB” but to “Advance Air cargo DB”, so it will not affect the following import procedures.Furthermore, House Manifest can not be inquired about through the “Inquiry for Import Cargo Information (IAW)” procedure.

５．Regarding ADM01 and HDM01, draft input/output fields and draft segment table for EDIFACT message are as per attached.

６．To be implemented in March 2019 (Connectivity test is scheduled to be available from January 2019.）

New procedure for filing advance air cargo information on House Manifest. Input items are same as HCH01 but input conditions are not identical with HCH01.

Basic flow for outbound PNR

<Effects for NACCS users>

By the end of fiscal 2018, there will be a modification to the Customs Law specifying that submission of outbound PNR must be implemented not by paper

but “through NACCS”. Thus the NACCS Center will take actions in order to enable the outbound PNR procedures to be processed by the system, in the

same way as current inbound PNR, within FY2018. Although no procedure specification will be changed, those airline companies who submit inbound PNR

via a Service Provider (SP) system need to contact their SP beforehand, so that they can submit outbound PNR to NACCS through the SP system. We, the

NACCS Center, will start an outbound PNR service around March 2019, and prior to the launch of the service, a Connectivity Test Period will be set for

outbound PNR related procedures. The concrete schedule for the test will be announced as soon as possible when it is decided.

Existing procedure for advance filing inbound PNR for Japan Customs

Inbound PNR

Procedure specification for the existing procedure “PNR01” will be changed so that outbound PNR can be submitted to Japan Customs. Input items are the same as the ones for inbound PNR.
