Although the detailed outcomes are still uncertain, we can be sure that Brexit will result in changes to Customs formalities.

The United Kingdom has been a large trading nation for centuries, and already has efficient processes where the majority of Customs declarations are submitted electronically and cleared rapidly.

RW Freight has been a successful freight forwarding company since 1971, two years before the UK joined what was then known as the Common Market.

We have a wealth of experience of both import and export Customs clearance procedures to and from countries inside and outside Europe.

HMRC is phasing in a new Customs Declaration Service and have said “The first phase of the Customs Declaration Service was delivered on time in August 2018 and all remaining functionality will be in place by the end of March 2019.”

On 23 August the government published a series of technical notices giving guidance on preparing for exporting and importing if there is a ‘no deal’ Brexit

Whatever final outcome of Brexit negotiations, you can rely on R W Freight experience and expertise to keep your cargo moving.
