Customs Compliance Health Check
Complying with customs regulations in the UK is a necessity, and one which requires knowledge and due diligence. Providing inaccurate values, customs tariff codes or Customs Procedure Codes (CPC) on export or import entries can result in shipment delays, as well as customs queries or inspections, which can have adverse consequences.

We specialise in offering tailored Project Management covering various areas of expertise in international trade and customs compliance services. We offer advice and expertise to organisations to help them improve their business performance in terms of operations, profitability, management, structure and strategy.
Freight Forwarding
We offer a service to industries and freight forwarders to review current operational practices to identify key areas of continuous improvements, implementation of best practices and work on solutions around areas of the business where the targeted results are not being achieved.

If you are interested in becoming AEO accredited, or are in the process of renewing your existing accreditation, our experts can help with every stage of the process. Achieving AEO status can be a time consuming and often a daunting exercise, we can help take you through every step of acquiring and maintaining AEO status.
