Changes in the SENT System – Expanded List of Goods from March 2026

Significant changes are coming to the regulations governing the Electronic Transport Surveillance System (SENT*), in accordance with the Regulation of the Minister of Finance and Economy of September 10, 2025, amending the regulation on goods whose transport is covered by the road and rail transport monitoring system and the trade in fuel (Journal of Laws 2025, item 1244**).

There are important changes to the regulations governing the Electronic Transport Supervision System (SENT) are coming. The amendment expands the list of goods subject to mandatory transport notification, introducing additional requirements for companies transporting specific product categories. These updates aim to strengthen control over the movement of sensitive goods, improve traceability throughout the supply chain, and reduce the risk of irregularities. As a result, businesses involved in the transport, trade, or distribution of the newly added product groups will need to carefully review their current procedures, ensure proper registration within the PUESC platform, and adjust their operational workflows to maintain full compliance. The changes are expected to have a direct impact on daily logistics processes, documentation standards, and the responsibilities of both senders and carriers.

“As a logistics company, we treat regulatory compliance as a top priority. The introduced changes to the SENT system are an important step toward increasing the transparency and safety of transported goods. We encourage our customers to prepare for the new requirements as soon as possible, and we are ready to support at every stage — because WeCare is more than a slogan for Raben Group, it’s our commitment.”— says,Zofia Wiśniewska, Customer Service Manager, Raben East

New Categories of Goods Requiring SENT Notification

Under the new rules, SENT obligations will apply in particular to the transport of:

• Clothing and clothing accessories made of knitted fabrics – goods from CN chapter 61 for shipments over 10 kg

• Clothing and clothing accessories not made of knitted fabrics – goods from CN chapter 62 for shipments over 10 kg

• Used clothing and other second‑hand items – CN 6309 00 00, if the gross weight exceeds 10 kg

• Footwear (CN 64, excluding footwear parts), if the shipment contains more than 20 pieces

• Combinations of the above categories, if the total gross weight exceeds 10 kg

What Does This Mean in Practice?

To properly submit SENT notifications, each customer will be required to:

• Have an active PUESC account with access to the SENT area

• Assign a representative to the company and grant them the appropriate permission to handle notifications

“For many companies, these changes will be the first-time clothing or footwear shipments fall under SENT control. Proper CN code verification and clear internal procedures will be essential to avoid inspection‑related delays.” — says Jacek Derda, Head of Customs Agency at Raben East.

 

Consequences of Missing or Incorrect SENT Notifications

Improper or missing notification may lead to serious consequences, including:

• Financial penalties

• Detention of goods

• Liability on the part of the sender, recipient, or carrier

How to Prepare for the Changes?

We recommend reviewing your existing logistics processes and adjusting them to the new regulations before the rules come into force. Proper preparation will help avoid unnecessary delays and minimize the risk of sanctions.
