    Exporting to Bulgaria From a Non-EU Country Like the UK

    For British firms, the Brexit trading arrangements have meant that the customs paperwork required has increased dramatically. When it comes to declarations and clearance paperwork needed for numerous commodities, it is crucial to know what specifications are for your cargo. We recommend doing your research and speaking to your customs agent and freight forwarding company for advice. You will also need an EORI (Economic Operator Registration and Identification Number) for both the EU and another for the UK. Refer to our blog What is an EORI Number to get started. Understanding customs laws is more straightforward with an experienced custom agent and freight forwarder on your team, so reach out to see how we can help smooth the process for you.
