Communication presenting the 2024 update of the Multi-Annual Implementation Plan for the establishment of a European Maritime Single Window environment

Summary:

Communication published by the European Commission on 22 October 2024 providing an update of the Multi-Annual Implementation Plan for the establishment of a European Maritime Single Window environment (EMSWe).

Further information:

Regulation (EU) 2019/1239 - also known as the EMSWe Regulation - is built on an existing network of maritime national single windows (MNSWs) and lays down a common, interoperable environment for ships to report information to shore during a port call. The Regulation empowers the European Commission to draw up a standardised dataset covering all reporting obligations and to develop and maintain common interfaces and services for the MNSWs. It is set to apply from August 2025.

The multiannual implementation plan is updated every year in accordance with Article 19 of the EMSWe Regulation, following appropriate consultations with national experts. The first version of this document was adopted by the Commission in 2021 and then updated in 2023. This Communication was published in the Official Journal on 22 October 2024.
