A missing certificate can cost you a container. Our in-house customs and compliance team clears the documentation ahead of arrival, so your produce keeps moving — not sitting in demurrage.
Every day a perishable consignment spends in clearance is a day off its shelf life and money off its value. Border checks, phytosanitary inspection and import declarations are where inexperienced importers lose containers — and customer trust.
We treat compliance as a logistics function, not an afterthought. Documentation is prepared and lodged before arrival, our brokers know the commodities, and we maintain the registrations that keep us listed in the customs databases the trade runs on.
Origin-issued plant-health certificates managed and matched to each consignment for border inspection.
Customs entries pre-lodged with correct commodity codes, values and preferential origin where applicable.
Coordination of official inspections at the BCP, with sampling and release managed to minimise delay.
Correct tariff classification and duty calculation, including tariff-rate quotas and entry-price systems for fruit & veg.
Verification of packaging, labelling and country-of-origin marking against EU and destination-market rules.
For seafood, full IUU compliance and catch documentation to keep product legal and traceable.
Yes. For most EU destinations we can act as importer of record and handle the full clearance, or work alongside your own broker if you prefer to retain that role.
Documentation is prepared and pre-lodged before the vessel berths, inspections are booked in advance, and our team tracks the container so any query is resolved before it becomes a delay.
Yes — we routinely manage entry-price-system commodities and tariff-rate quotas, classifying correctly and optimising duty within the rules.
We prepare the certificates and documentation required for re-export and onward shipment into CIS markets, working with established partners on the destination side.
Our compliance team will map the documentation and inspection requirements for your route before you commit.
