The online form declaration by third parties provides two options.

Declaration

This form is exclusively intended for service providers that have been commissioned to report data once on behalf of a business responsible for providing information. The basic data of the party responsible for providing information must be entered for each item. If you regularly submit declarations on behalf of other businesses, we recommend that you submit them using your own access details. See Chapter 7.4 of the IDEV general help pages. Use the form declaration for intra-Community trade statistics for businesses for which a declaration is to be submitted in this way.

Nil report

If cross-border movements of goods (arrivals and/or dispatches) did not take place in a reference month, you can send us a nil report in order to avoid questions that might come up when we check the data upon their arrival.

Please be sure that you submit either a declaration or a nil report.

If a server or computer failure occurs during data entry or an incomplete declaration form is exited without the logout, the IDEV system will provide a server backup one hour later. The positions can be selected, supplemented and transmitted as usual. The server backup is available to the declarant until the next successful data transmission. If the data shown have been transmitted in the meantime, the backup can be deleted with the button "Open form without loading backup".

How to proceed

• The input mask for the form is displayed without any data. To enter the data, first click on "Start with or add movement of goods". See picture above.

  The form has to be filled out according to the requirements. To enter further movements of goods (positions), click on "Add further goods movements" or "Copy goods movements". It's not possible to send or leave a faulty or incomplete movement of goods. The current movement of googs has to be corrected or delete. If necessary, movements of goods that have not yet been reported can be saved locally or on the server with "Save questionnaire for interim period" and via "Open questionnaire saved" can be overtake into the form again in the next session and edit further. You can also save movements of goods that have already been recorded but not yet sent when you exit the form with "End data entry (no data transmission)"

• Recurring of movements of goods, without specifying quantities and values, you can create with "Save pattern".

  With "Load pattern" a sample put on before is read in into the current form.

  "Load pattern as new dataset" enables a previously created pattern to be transferred to the current movement of goods (only possible if the position seized before is error free).

  Patterns that are no longer required, can be removed with "Delete pattern".

• Use the "Send" button to transmit your data to the Federal Statistical Office. After receipt without error a a transmission confirmation will be displayed. A detailed overview of the reported movements of goods can be download with " Download confirmation of sending as PDF".
