The European Commission has announced changes to the ICS2 (Import Control System 2) that will impact customs descriptions for items.
Who is impacted?
All merchants shipping from outside the EU to the EU.
What does it mean for Merchants shipping to the EU?
As of April 1, 2025, ICS2 will be adding many generic or vague item descriptions to a “Stop List.” Items with these descriptions will no longer be granted entry into the EU.

What should Merchants do?
If you have not updated your descriptions or still use any of these generic terms, your shipments may be stopped at customs.
We urge you to review your product descriptions and take action to ensure compliance with these new regulations.
