When you have logged in to the EU Trader Portal, choose “REX” from the menu.
The system opens “My REX History”. Request registration by clicking on the button “Start Registration Request”.
If you already have a REX registration number, you can, on this page, request modification or revocation of a registration, view the details of the existing registration or print out the registration details in PDF format. In that case, the following buttons will be displayed: “Start Modification Request”, “Start Revocation Request”, “View My REX” and “Print”.
Read below what details must be provided in the request.
