Brexit and Importing Goods from Suppliers in Luxembourg
Customs checks, potential tariffs and extensive documentation are now required for any import from Luxembourg which was not the case when the UK was in the EU. Today, the accurate classification of goods using Harmonised System (HS) codes is essential to determine applicable duties. Without such compliance with both UK and EU standards, goods may be delayed, fines imposed or, in the worst cases, shipments may be impounded. Barrington Freight’s expertise is on hand to assist UK businesses, thereby ensuring a seamless import process from Luxembourg with most commodity classes. Don’t allow the complexity of the post-Brexit trading landscape prevent you from purchasing imports from Luxembourg when we have the know-how to help.
