The entry into force of the new Dual-Use Regulation on 09.09.2021 brings with it some technical adjustments in ATLAS, which were implemented on 01.10.2021. New authorisation codes will be used in ATLAS Export. They replace the previous codes.

Dear customs community,
In this article, I would like to address a topic that is not entirely new - but which is still frequently brought to my attention and raises many questions. In particular, when different customs offices have different requirements for an alternative proof, uncertainty arises and questions arise. Although it is not a BREXIT-specific problem, many export procedures that have been opened to the UK remain unresolved. The customs administration has also responded to this with simplifications.
But first things first!
The follow-up procedure for exports
If no exit note (AGV) has been received within 90 days of the release for export, the customs office will initiate the follow-up procedure and you will be requested via ATLAS to provide information on the whereabouts of the goods. You have 45 days to respond.
If the export has taken place, an alternative proof must normally be submitted within 150 days (after release for export). Due to the large number of uncompleted transactions to the UK, the German customs administration has extended the deadline to 500 days until further notice (see chart or ATLAS Info 0255/21).
The EU Commission publishes a guide for companies to prepare for the end of the transition period.

The German customs administration has published a video explaining the new ATLAS application ZELOS. ZELOS, which stands for "centralised exchange of documents, requests and statements", is optionally available to participants from Atlas Release 9.0. From Atlas Release 10.1 and AES Release 3.0, ZELOS is mandatory for all participants.
