Customs permits
Authorizations with certainty
A customs authorization can provide a financial benefit. Under some procedures, import duties do not have to be paid immediately, or even at all. This strengthens your position in the market. But that benefit comes with a significant administrative obligation.
If the administration is incorrect or incomplete, Customs may still reclaim import duties. Including interest. Flevo Trade Service supports companies with applying for, setting up, and maintaining customs authorizations.
An authorization in practice
Authorizations such as Inward Processing, End-Use, or Customs Warehousing are designed to stimulate economic activity within the European Union. They make it possible to import, process, or store goods under specific conditions without paying import duties immediately.
That sounds straightforward. In reality, it means that every movement of goods must be recorded administratively and periodically accounted for to Customs.
As soon as that administration is incorrect, Customs may still reclaim import duties. Including corrections afterward. That is why our service does not stop at the application. It is precisely the management afterward that determines whether an authorization actually provides a benefit.
Applying for an authorization is one step. Actually controlling the procedure requires knowledge of customs legislation, experience with audits, and insight into administrative alignment.
From application to management
We first assess whether an authorization suits your goods flow and business operations. We then support the application and the administrative setup so it aligns with customs requirements.
After the authorization has been granted, structural maintenance begins. This means monitoring goods flows, periodic reporting, and support during audits. The administration is recorded in a structured way so that during an audit it is immediately clear how the process has been handled.
