Fixing ICS2 Data Integrity: The 5 Automated Checks Required for Error-Free ENS Submission

ICS2 Phase 3 is not just a Compliance update. For freight forwarders, importers and customs agents , it is a massive data integrity and compliance challenge.
The new EU rules - stricter ENS requirements, tighter validation, and higher penalties- have exposed brittle, manual, and unscalable data workflows. iCustoms have identified five critical failure points in legacy customs systems. Solving these requires robust, automated compliance tools.

The 5 Architectural Failure Points in ENS Submission

These recurring mistakes are seemingly due to poorly integrated or manual data handling. They are not merely human errors’, they are systemic flaws waiting to be triggered by ICS2’s demanding validation checks:

  1. Data Inconsistency and Incomplete ENS Submissions
  2. The HS Code Classification Debt
  3. Pre-Submission Validation Failure
  4. Mismanaged Multi-Filer Coordination
  5. Late or Delayed ENS Submissions

ICS2 Compliance is an architectural challenge that demands real-time data integrity, AI-driven classification, and complex multi-party coordination. The technical debt of building and maintaining this compliance logic is immense.
Instead of fighting recurring systemic errors, automate your entire Compliance process.
