What does DMS677AA mean?

The codebook sets at DMS677AA the wording OPGEGEVEN WAARDE VERPLICHT OPGAVE ANDER GEGEVEN. That line names the element or the situation, not the cause on your file.

Does the code say why my declaration is wrong?

No. The code names the element or the reason class. The location in the message and the master data say why it fails on this file.

Do I get an MRN with this error?

No. This is an acceptance-blocking error. For as long as the named element is wrong, the declaration is not accepted and there is no MRN.

May I translate or shorten the official text?

Not as a source. Customs publishes the wording in Dutch. A translation in software is a display, not a second official text.

Official wording from the codebook

OPGEGEVEN WAARDE VERPLICHT OPGAVE ANDER GEGEVEN

What does the codebook say for this code?

The official wording is: OPGEGEVEN WAARDE VERPLICHT OPGAVE ANDER GEGEVEN. That text comes straight from the Dutch codebook. We do not translate or shorten it here. The legal note in the same table is: Er is een waarde opgegeven dat het opgeven van het gegeven in het afwijzingsbericht verplicht omdat dit gegeven ontbreekt. Dit geven gegeven kan op verschillende niveau`s in de aangifte opgegeven worden The code names the element or the situation. It does not say why that element is wrong on your file. Two consignments with DMS677AA can need a different correction.

Where does this code come from?

DMS677AA sits in table A99 FOUTCD.AANGIFTE of the Codeboek Douane, part UCC declaration handling. That is the list DMS uses when it returns a declaration. AGS or Sagitta numbers from the previous system do not belong here. A German or Belgian code does not either. Source: Codeboek Douane, part UCC declaration handling, table A99 FOUTCD.AANGIFTE, edition 2026-08-29.

Does this error block acceptance?

Table A99 marks DMS677AA as an acceptance-blocking error. The declaration is not accepted for as long as this element is wrong. There is no MRN. Correct the named field and file again.

How do you find the real cause?

Start from the location in the message, not from a list of fixed fixes. Put the named field next to the source document and the master data. Do not guess a cause from DMS677AA alone. The official list changes. This page follows the edition of 2026-08-29. A screenshot from last year can carry different wording. The Nationale Helpdesk Douane points to the codebook, not to a vendor list.
