Netcompany's ERMIS solution aids the launch of New Computerised Transit System Phase 5 (NCTS5)

Netcompany, a European IT consultancy, uses its ERMIS solution to launch the highly anticipated New Computerised Transit System Phase 5 (NCTS5) for HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC). This will replace the existing system, enable improved functionality for UK and EU traders, and meet new compliance requirements.

LONDON, July 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- On 28 June for Northern Ireland, followed by 1 July for Great Britain, the New Computerised Transit System Phase 5 (NCTS5) for HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) went live – enabling hundreds of Traders to further streamline the process of moving goods using transit through Great Britain and Northern Ireland. NCTS5 is a legal requirement of all Common Transit Convention (CTC) member countries, including the UK, and the new system will offer improved functionality for the benefit of Traders and Trade in UK and EU.

Netcompany, the European IT consultancy enabling this digital transformation project, has implemented its ERMIS NCTS5 COTS solution to transform the existing 20-year-old legacy system into a modern solution. Benefits of the transformation include reduced administrative burden through the transit procedure and control through automated processes.

"We are proud to bring our experience in helping governments digitalise their services to help enable a smooth trading procedure in the UK and EU," said Richard Davies, UK Managing Partner, Netcompany.  "Making it easier for traders moving goods through the UK is especially critical in this fast-evolving market and we are excited to be a part of the solution."

First introduced in the early 2000s, the NCTS is a Europe-wide system that replaced paper-based declaration and processing for goods to provide better management and control of Union and Common Transit. It has since gone through four versions or phases.
