How Has Brexit Altered the Importation Process From Romania?
Following Brexit, all goods imported from Romania are treated as third-country imports, necessitating customs declarations for every shipment. An EORI number is essential and must be secured before placing orders with Romanian suppliers to avoid delays. Additionally, it is beneficial to verify with your customs agent if your goods qualify for the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement, which may allow for “zero tariffs.” Our operations team at Barrington Freight can assist with these queries to ensure smooth import processes unless you would prefer to take them on yourself, in which case, we’ll simply operate as your freight importation forwarder.
