MRN — Movement Reference Number

An MRN (Movement Reference Number) is the EU-aligned reference number issued for transit and export movements. In Passar it is assigned when the declaration is accepted and is used to uniquely identify a movement of goods across offices and borders and to accompany it until discharge. It complements the system-internal GDRN.

In context

The MRN links the steps of an export or transit on Passar. It is aligned with the EU system and accompanies the movement until it is discharged.
