In-house customs clearance services

Licensed by The Federal Government – Ministry of Finance, EWL as a customs broker may act as an agent for commercial businesses importing product to the European Union (EU). In order for a shipment to be released by EU Customs and other government bodies, all required documents and forms must be supplied to them.

A Customs Broker’s job is to ensure that its clients’ shipments move seamlessly across the border and reach their destination on time, adhering to customs laws and regulations.

Customs Brokers should be used as key consultants as customs requirements are continiously changing.

A Customs Broker will assist the importer with the increased complexity of EU and VAT regulations, enabling him to take advantage of e.g. the VAT regulations and other trade agreement opportunities that can have a significant impact on the firm’s bottom line in reducing duties and taxes.

A Customs Broker can provide:

• IT support
• Hardware
• Software
• Personnel and associated overheads

A Customs Broker’s expertise in bringing goods across the border can avoid errors that cost time and money. Oversights in documentation, incorrect classification of goods, missed opportunities created by new regulations, and mistakes in dealing with current regulations are all common occurrences that hinder the smooth entry of products.
