Customers of the Federal Customs Administration (FCA) within the framework of customs customer management
Companies that clear customs directly with the FCA using its electronic systems are included by the FCA in the customs customer administration (ZKV) by means of the UID.

If you recognize your company in one or more of these groups, you are strongly advised to apply for a UID
