We have a few more courier companies we deal with so should be okay. Thanks though.ddraver said:You need to speak to a Customs Broker* quick sharp!
Trouble is all of the UK ones are full to overflowing at the moment

Thank you. As I said to Stevo I'll look into this more when I've normalised the other processes.ddraver said:To talk about Inward Processing I mean...

I'm afraid not as we don't need it. I just know it exists so thought I'd mention it in case it was any use.skyblueamateur said:
Briefly, but again looks like a fairly hefty chunk of paperwork and recording so I would have to weigh up these against the duty saving. We only pay on average 1.5-2 percent so is a cost we can absorb fortunately.Stevo_666 said:
Understood. I guess you've already looked at whether you can benefit from inward processing relief?skyblueamateur said:We have to pay duty coming into the UK and then when we send to Europe so have doubled up on the duty.
Fortunately, it is not the end of the world for us as we are in low percentage commodity codes. I can see it being a massive problem for some markets though.
As stated previously it is the beaurocracy and carriage charges which is my primary concern.
Is this a process you have experience with? Any thoughts on how to implement it would be massively appreciated.
Atm we're still trying to get to grips with the export processes but as these become a normalised process we will probably look at this again."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]1 -
You've lost me? We're an SME trying our best to get all of the new processes in place so we can carry on business as normal as we can.darkhairedlord said:

We're not really in a position to add more unfamiliar processes in atm.
I assume you're taking the p1ss but unsure as to why. Well done though.0 -

No worries. I think a lot of companies are trying to get to grips with the new processes and requirements - overall its going pretty well but there have been a few glitches with carrier capacity, customs capacity (in NL not UK) and a couple of cases of not getting the paperwork on large mixed loads. No more than a days delay in delivery though.skyblueamateur said:

That said we are a multinational and have a dedicated logistics and customs outfit."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]1 -
