Import & Export
Import and export without surprises
Import and export require correct declarations and proper alignment with the applicable regulations. Every product has its own commodity code, associated import duties and specific requirements from Customs and other authorities. Flevo Trade Service handles these declarations and supports the full process, with extra attention to the food and fish sector, where additional inspections or certificates may be required.

The right declaration
Goods imported from outside the European Union must be declared to Customs. Every goods flow is classified with a unique commodity code, the HS code. This code is linked to import duties and conditions, which may differ per product.
The same principle applies to export outside the EU. Based on the commodity code and the country of destination, Customs determines which requirements apply. In some cases, additional documents are required, such as origin documents or certificates.
Flevo Trade Service handles these customs declarations and ensures they align with the product, origin and destination.
Trade with the United Kingdom
Since Brexit, the United Kingdom is no longer part of the European Union. This means that import and export with the UK always involve customs declarations and additional documentation.
Flevo Trade Service prepared for this at an early stage and supports import and export flows to and from the United Kingdom in line with current regulations. The right declarations, documents and follow-up ensure that shipments are handled correctly.
