Do you import your products?
Have you considered using a Public Customs Bonded Warehouse?
We have been assessed by HMRC and have met their exacting requirements to be authorised as a Public Customs Bonded Warehouse. This means we are subject to regular visits to ensure we are complying to all their stringent rules and guidelines.
There are different types of bonded warehouses and we have been authorised by HMRC to store both ‘dry’ as well as ‘wet’ goods – the ‘wet’ goods mean that we are able to store alcohol and tobacco.
Our dedicated team of warehouse and administration staff have many years of experience in the warehouse and distribution industry. We are can receive these goods acting as a warehouse keeper into our customs-bonded warehouse facility. So they will be securely stored until you are ready to export or place them into free circulation.
Your responsibilities would be:-
1. Correctly declare your goods
2. Ensure that they enter our warehouse which you have named on your declaration within 5 days of clearing customs
3. Provide us with all the details of the import declaration
4. Ensure your goods are being correctly declared on removal from our facility, which is when any duties will be payable. (except if you are going to re-export them for overseas trade, then duties and taxes will not be paid in the UK, but in the country of destination, avoiding double payment of duty.)
