Importing goods from a third country into the European Union, already subject to numerous formalities, is being transformed by the introduction of a new dematerialised system, particularly in France: <strong>DELTA IE<\/strong>. This major change is accompanied by the gradual disappearance of a document that has been in use for over thirty years: the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.asd-int.com\/en\/european-union-the-european-commission-plans-to-change-the-format-of-the-single-administrative-document-sad-in-2023\/\">SAD (Single Administrative Document)<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In its place, a new declarative approach is being introduced: the <strong>new<\/strong> <strong>H1 import system<\/strong> (which takes the form of an <strong>electronic dataset<\/strong> and a <strong>fully dematerialised data system<\/strong>), now essential for importing goods into the European Union.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This comprehensive guide will help you understand:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>what DELTA IE is in France,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>what changes with the H1 system,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>why the <strong>SAD is disappearing<\/strong>,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>how the new import procedure works in practice,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>practical examples for importers and logistics providers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ASD Group Customs has been supporting European companies with their customs formalities for over 20 years.<\/strong><br>Each year, our teams process several <strong>thousand declarations<\/strong> (import\/export) and closely monitor technical developments such as DELTA IE, ATLAS (Germany), CDS (United Kingdom) and AIDA (Italy).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to our role as an <em>official partner of international operators<\/em>, we directly observe the difficulties encountered during the switch from SAD \u2192 H1 and the impacts on the supply chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is DELTA IE and what is it for?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>DELTA IE (I for Import, E for Export)<\/strong> is a <strong>new online customs clearance service<\/strong> developed by French Customs. The Union Customs Code (UCC), which entered into force in 2016, requires the establishment of interoperable national information systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This development involves a complete overhaul of existing customs systems to enable their use within the framework of European Centralised Clearance (ECC). DELTA IE is the French system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It enables <strong>the receipt and processing of customs declarations in a fully dematerialised manner<\/strong> and is intended to <strong>replace the current DELTA-G and DELTA-X systems<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the objectives of DELTA IE?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>DELTA IE forms part of a European modernisation of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.asd-int.com\/en\/handle-customs-operations\/\">customs processes<\/a>.
