Upcoming Implementation of SENT Regulation – Poland

We would like to inform you about upcoming changes to Polish regulations related to the SENT (System for Electronic Transport Supervision).

From 17-th of March 2026 SENT regulation will cover monitoring of transport of new categories of goods – clothing and footwear – import, export and transit. The SENT regulation introduces mandatory obligations for electronic registration and shipment monitoring. These obligations are valid for the senders and/or receivers of goods and transport providers.

Key responsibilities under SENT regulation:

• Senders and/or receivers of goods are legally responsible for:
  • Opening the SENT registration
  • Providing accurate shipment data
  • Closing the SENT case after delivery
• Transport providers (truck or rail operators) are responsible for:
  • Executing transport based on a valid SENT reference
  • Providing transport data and GPS monitoring during transit

Maersk Poland is well prepared to comply with transport-related SENT requirements, provided a valid SENT reference is supplied by the customer. The sender/receiver part of the SENT process (opening and closing) remains the customer’s responsibility. Maersk does not currently offer SENT registration as a service.

Requests for Maersk to manage the full SENT process on behalf of customers are under internal review - no standard solution is available at this time.

Next Steps:

We strongly encourage customers to:

• Review their SENT obligations ahead of the 17 March 2026 go-live
• Ensure internal readiness for SENT registration where applicable
• Engage early with relevant compliance and logistics teams
