Georgia’s 2026 DCFTA plan advances digital customs and advance rail-cargo information exchange

Verified facts

• Georgia’s official 2026 DCFTA action plan identifies implementation of the ASY5 Customs Digital Platform by the Georgian Customs Service, replacing existing customs software. The plan sets an annual implementation activity and names the Revenue Service as responsible. It is a public implementation commitment, not evidence that an individual company has a user account, integration, approval, declared cargo or priority processing.
• The same action plan identifies advance exchange of railway-cargo information through digital solutions between Georgian Railway and the customs authority. The stated output is advance provision of information on rail cargo to Customs. This is a practical direction for data-readiness and document sequencing, while the operational data fields, users, access rules, rollout stage and transaction applicability need confirmation with the responsible parties.
• Georgia’s Revenue Service publishes the New Computerized Transit System information page and reports that NCTS supports a single electronic transit declaration and guarantee submission in the Common Transit environment. Its legal update records Georgia’s accession to the Common Transit Convention in February 2025 and mandatory use of NCTS declarations for specified movements from May and June 2025. These are useful current operating references, while the exact procedure remains dependent on the goods, mode, route, declarant, guarantee, customs status and current rules.
• The Revenue Service’s 2025–2030 strategy describes customs risk-management, advance-information exchange and digital integration with business systems as continuing priorities for an open economy with significant transit functions. It supplies independent institutional context for the 2026 plan, without confirming capacity, clearance time, carrier performance, tariff, availability, commercial access or an individual shipment outcome.
