Whereas:

(1) Regulation (EU) 2019/1020 requires the Commission to set up an electronic interface (‘the interface’) between the Information and Communication System for Market Surveillance (‘ICSMS’) and national customs systems and empowers the Commission to adopt implementing acts in this respect.

(2) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/2248(2) lays down requirements for the development of the interface, including requirements as regards the processing of personal data and the confidentiality of data to be transmitted by means of the interface.

(3) In accordance with Regulation (EU) 2022/2399 of the European Parliament and of the Council(3)that entered into force on 12 December 2022, ICSMS is to be connected with the European Union Customs Single Window Certificates Exchange System (‘EU CSW-CERTEX’) that thus becomes the electronic interface referred to in Article 34(7) of Regulation (EU) 2019/1020.

(4) Regulation (EU) 2022/2399 lays down a unique set of rules, including rules on the confidentiality of data and on the processing of personal data, that is to apply to EU CSW-CERTEX when enabling the exchange of data between Union non-customs systems listed in the Annex to that Regulation and national single window environments for customs.
