Customs and documents
Every movement between Great Britain and the EU is an export and an import. We prepare or coordinate the UK export declaration, the EU import declaration or a T1 transit document, the GMR for the Goods Vehicle Movement Service at Dover and Eurotunnel, and the safety and security declarations. You provide the commercial invoice, the packing list and the EORI numbers of both parties; goods of animal or plant origin also need the health or phytosanitary certificate and a border control post on the route.
