Issue accompanying documents for wine shipments

• You submit the accompanying document for the wine transport online, by post or fax to the office responsible for the place of loading.
• You create the accompanying document immediately before the wine transport, when the wine has been loaded onto the transport vehicle and the final number of litres for the transport has been determined. The accompanying document refers only to this transport and cannot be used for other transports.

The electronic wine accompanying document procedure (eWeinBV) allows you to create the wine accompanying document online:

• Before the upcoming transport, you log in to the eWeinBV application with your user ID and prepare the electronic wine accompanying document.
• This will guide you step by step through the necessary information that you can enter online.
• Finally, you confirm that all the information provided is correct.
• The accompanying document is created, receives a unique reference number and is unchangeable for you. The transport can begin.
• All parties involved (e.g. sender, driver, recipient) can now call up the electronic wine accompanying document online or receive it digitally.

Submit the accompanying document by post or fax:

• Fill out the 5-fold form legibly and completely.
• You give the original to the driver. You keep the remaining four copies.
• The driver hands the original to the recipient of the wine transport (e.g. the winery) at the destination.
• You send two copies by post or fax to the responsible control centre at the place of loading no later than one day after the start of the transport.
• the two remaining copies are for your records.

You only need to create and send the accompanying document. There is no processing or notification by the authorities.
