Obtain a T1 transit document for moving goods across multiple borders

It is not always easy to determine when a T1 document is required for the transit of goods. Some common situations in which this document is required are:

If uncertain whether goods entering the EU will remain within the territory

If goods travel through another EU member state before reaching their final destination

When goods enter the EU to be stored under customs supervision

When outbound shipments are sent from your bonded warehouse

When goods are moved under customs supervision between the port and the warehouse or destination

We'll explain the benefits of a T1 document, arrange a bonded warehouse permit if necessary, and file the necessary declarations on your behalf. As a result, you can navigate the complexities of customs matters with confidence.

We make sure you don't pay too much import duty and VAT

Lower your import duties and VAT costs. With us, you never overpay for import duties and VAT, because why spend more than you need to? Our expert European customs experts take advantage of every available opportunity using the transit procedure, which allows the payment of import duties and VAT to be deferred for a longer period, or in some cases avoided altogether.

Transporting goods through non-EU countries with a T2 transit document

The free movement of EU goods applies only to countries within the European Union. Once goods pass through a non-EU country, such as Switzerland or another EFTA country, a valid T2 transit document is required. Our team will help you:

When making a T2 transit declaration

File an accompanying export declaration if necessary

Frequently asked questions about import declarations

What is a T1 transit document?

A T1 transit document is an EU customs procedure that can be used between the EU and common transit countries, including the United Kingdom. This document allows undischarged goods to move across international borders while delaying the need to pay duties and file customs declarations until the goods arrive at their final destination or are re-exported. This document also ensures that the goods are under customs supervision during transportation.

What is a T2 transit document?

A T2 transit document is used within the European Union for the transit of goods that are in free circulation within the EU. This means that the goods have been produced or imported into the EU and that all relevant customs duties and taxes have been paid. The T2 document facilitates the movement of these goods through countries that are not part of the EU's customs territory, such as Switzerland or Norway.
