TIR Carnet
The TIR Carnet is a Transit document that manages the National part of an International Transit
movement. The TIR Carnet is used for movements of National Transit, as shown in the table below:
From (Origin)
To (Destination)
Inland Customs Office
Border Customs Office of Exit
Inland Customs Office
Inland Customs Office for partial loading
Inland Customs Office
Inland Customs Office for partial unloading
Border Customs Office of Entry
Inland Customs Office for final discharge
Border Customs Office of Entry
Border Customs Office of Exit
Border Customs Office of Entry
Inland Customs Office for partial loading
Border Customs Office of Entry
Inland Customs Office for partial unloading
These different forms of Transit using the TIR Carnet are implemented in MODTRS. A TIR Carnet
can be created at an Inland Customs Office or Border Customs Office of Entry. Once the TIR
Carnet has been validated, it is considered to be ‘OPEN’ and a message containing the TIR Carnet
data is sent to the next intended office.
When the goods arrive at the next designated office, the TIR Carnet is validated and is now
considered ‘CLOSED’ and a message containing the TIR Carnet data is sent to the office of origin.
Any further operation opens the TIR Carnet again.
The TIR document consists of a carnet and several vouchers. Each time ‘Open’ or ‘Close’ occurs,
a new voucher is created. Each segment of transit is done with 2 vouchers, one for ‘Open’ and one
for ‘Close’.

To explain the processing of TIR Carnets in ASYCUDA++, the different options available in
MODTRS are described, with details of how to apply the processes to the different forms of
National Transit mentioned in the previous paragraphs.
