EORI number

Who needs an EORI number, where to register and why we need it to file declarations in your name.

Last updated: October 2026

In brief

  • The EORI number is the number under which a business is registered with customs in the EU.
  • Businesses importing or exporting goods in the EU need one, and so does anyone filing an entry summary declaration (ENS).
  • In Bulgaria it is issued by the Customs Agency.
  • Without an EORI number we cannot file a declaration in your name.

What an EORI number is

The EORI number is the number under which a business is registered with the customs authorities in the EU. It is given in customs declarations and in the ENS.

Who needs one

  • Businesses that import or export goods in the EU
  • Anyone filing an ENS

Some ENS filings also give the consignee's EORI number.

Where to register

The EORI number is issued by the customs authorities, in Bulgaria by the Customs Agency. You register once, before the first customs declaration. If you do not have an EORI number yet, we will tell you how to apply.

The EORI number and representation

Under direct representation we file the declarations in your name, so your EORI number is given in them. You send it to us with the documents for the first shipment, together with the power of attorney for direct representation.

Write to us about your shipment and we will check the conditions with you.
