Custom Clearance Export from LONDON GATWICK AIRPORT

At Barrington Freight, we are well-versed in all aspects of customs clearance export work at London Gatwick Airport (LGW). London’s second airport is mostly known as a passenger terminal but considerable amounts of cargo are freighted via Gatwick every year, too. As such, it is one of the most important airports in southern England for exporters. If you want to get goods to a range of overseas markets from London, Kent, Surrey, Sussex or just about anywhere else in the Southeast, then Gatwick would make a fine choice.

However, British exporters will often find that they have difficulties arranging all of the necessary customs clearance paperwork. Just like any other airport in the UK handling exported goods, Gatwick Airport’s customs officials must inspect consignments before they are allowed to be stowed onto aircraft to commence their onward journey out of the country. Such visual checks are often hampered when the accompanying customs export declaration is not complete or has been filled out with technical errors. The process of declaring goods for export takes a great deal of know-how whether you are trying to get the right commodity codes or need to declare excise duty.

To help with all aspects of customs clearances at Gatwick, we provide professional clearance agency services. Our agents will be able to make sure your declarations are filled out correctly long before the goods arrive at the airport for their inspection. By ensuring HMRC officials see paperwork that matches their expectations, the chance of a delay or a clarification being sought will be greatly diminished.
