How can we help you export goods?

The challenges of exporting goods

Exporting goods involves many challenges that can cause delays in the supply chain. One of the biggest challenges is the complexity of customs regulations, which can vary depending on the country you wish to export to, and which you must comply with as an exporter. It is therefore important to find out about these regulations in advance and to ensure that all the necessary export documents are available and correctly drawn up.

Export Clearance | Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Which documents are required for export customs clearance?

Export clearance normally requires the: 

  • Commercial invoice
  • Packing list
  • Movement certificate (EG. Bill of Lading / CMR)

In addition, depending on the type of commodity and the location of the export as well as importing country, additional documents might be required. This can be for licensing, preference, or quota reasons. 

If you need advice on documents required for export customs clearance, speak to a member of Customs Support today. Our export brokers process commodities of all kinds across Europe, and we will be happy to assist you with your query. 

How long does an export clearance take?

Export clearance is processed in two stages. The first stage is the creation of the export declaration. The second stage of export clearance is when the shipment leaves the border and customs authorities to process the declaration as live. This completes the export customs clearance. 

How long your export customs clearance will take depends on the complexity, but the processing takes minutes once the declaration is submitted to customs. However, this can be extended if customs have a query or would like to conduct a physical or document inspection on the goods before departure. 

If you need a fast, accurate, and compliant export agency, contact Customs Support today. 

How much does it cost to process an export clearance?

The cost of an export clearance varies depending on the location, the amount of product being processed, how often you export, and whether any licensing or inspections are required.

Export clearance is generally cheaper than import clearance due to there being no taxes to pay on most goods leaving a country. However, in countries where there arefewer exports than imports (like the UK), skilled export brokers can be less common so the price can be higher.

Customs Support have experiencedexport consultants throughout Europe and the UK, providing businesses like yours with fast, accurate, and compliant export clearance every day.
