Transport news to/from the United Kingdom of Great Britain & Northern Ireland

Despite the Brexit deal, numerous customs formalities must therefore be fulfilled on both sides. Longer running times are to be expected until this settles in. We've put together the key points for you to ship your shipments to and from the UK.

Unfortunately, we currently have to suspend shipments to private recipients, as GBPR customs is currently excluded in the UK. In order to avoid overloading the warehouse in England, it is necessary that the goods remain in the shippers' warehouse.

Your checklist - export

• No private recipients, as customs clearance via GBPR procedures is excluded
• Export declaration (ABD, EX1, AE, MRN) starting at 0.01€ goods value
• 3-fold commercial invoice
• Who is responsible for import duties?
  The recipient's customs agent or Emons partner
• Does the recipient cover any costs?
  VAT 20% in the UK and any import duties/clearance costs
• Recipient's EORI number
• Contact person at the recipient with telephone number and e-mail address
• Delivery only after Avis. No appointments

• Since Brexit, pallets must comply with ISPM 15
