Exports

Just as with goods arriving into the UK, goods departing from the UK also require specific export documentation. Depending on the nature of the goods and the reason for export, various customs regimes and requirements apply.

We can assist in establishing which procedures are most suitable and help raise various types of export documentation, including EADs for goods under IP or OP, from a Customs Warehouse, SSD declarations (EXS and ENS), and more specialized documents such as EUR.1 and ATA Carnets, covering movements by air, sea, or road.
