0. INTRODUCTIONThis specification provides the definition of the International movement of goods governmental regulatory message (SANCRT) to be used in Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) between trading partners involved in administration, commerce and transport. 1. | SCOPE1.1. | Functional DefinitionThe SANCRT message permits a commercial operator to apply to a national agency for the issue of a certificate, permit, authorization etc. in respect of products to be imported or exported. It further permits the issuing authority to transmit to the applicant and to the exporting or importing country's relevant national authority, (e.g. Customs, Agriculture etc.) the details of the certificate, permit or authorization in respect of those products thus facilitating the import/export clearance of the consignment whilst ensuring that all certificate, permit, authorization requirements are met. 1.2. | Field of ApplicationThe International movement of goods governmental regulatory message may be used for both national and international trade. It is based on universal commercial practice and is not dependent on the type of business or industry. 1.3. | PrinciplesThis message may be used nationally and internationally by government authorities and commercial entities requesting, issuing or verifying permits, certificates, authorizations, licences, etc. in respect of imported and exported goods. Typically the message would be used:
The message is intended to cover a wide range of products requiring authorization, certification, etc. for a wide variety of reasons (e.g. sanitary/phytosanitary certification, certificate of origin, certificate of authenticity, import and export permits or licenses for various goods).
