International trade offers opportunities for growth but is also bound by laws and regulations.
When exporting to countries outside of the EU one require to do an export Customs declaration.The 0% BTW tariff applies but only when there is proof that the shipment has actually left the EU.
Rotterdam Customs Services can take this whole process out of your hands and take care of a smooth export flow. We actually live in a world in which trade agreements change almost every single day. Besides export customs checks we can also assist with quality-, phyto sanitary and veterinary controls so you may expect that the paperwork is made up in a correct manner and the goods will arrive at their destination.
We have developed our own export portal system with which we can receive your data efficiently not only to process the correct export declaration but also to use the date in the country of destination. As a result the whole export process is digitalized. We still also maintain the options to do manual declarations and process these via our systems.
When exporting goods one has to do with different kinds of laws and regulations. The luxury of a unit trade culture as we have in the EU does not apply for other countries and continents outside of the EU.
Preparing the correct documentation is ‘a must’ to avoid delays of delivery. Without an export customs declaration it is not possible to trade outside the EU.
Rotterdam Customs Services offers many possibilities to digitalize the export process.
It is an option to manually feed our export portal but we can also connect our systems so we can exchange data via xml. Human error can be minimized and it saves unneeded emails. Our IT team is available to discuss the options.
