Customs clearance - Import and Export

Customs

Trade with the rest of the world requires heavy customs and fee regulations, as well as time-consuming processes at the Customs Agency to get a product in or out of the country.

The most common customs process is called 'ordinary import or export' and applies to the purchase and sales of goods. Other types include:

• temporary import or export- goods that are imported or exported for temporary use, repair, processing, or similar

• re-entry or re-exportation of goods that are reintroduced or re-exported after temporary admission or exit.

To ensure efficient customs, we are linked to the Swedish Customs Agency's electronic customs system, TDS for the exchange of customs declarations.

As an exporter, you are responsible for the export clearance/declare, here you will find more information about the export of duty-free goods.

We provide Customs warehouse

ColliCare has approved customs warehouses in line with current regulations. There are strict requirements for a customs warehouse. The storage period also has given deadlines and conditions that are regulated by the Swedish Customs.

A customs warehouse is a place approved by the Swedish Customs where goods can be stored until the goods are sold. If you are not going to use your product directly upon entry into Sweden, you can store it at a customs warehouse. Then you only pay customs duties and VAT when you sold the goods if you make an import declaration. If you export the goods instead of a country outside the EU, you do not have to pay any customs duties and VAT in the EU on the goods.

Collicare Logistics has a private customs warehouse where we as licensees are responsible for the necessary conditions for the permit such as the customs warehouse register complies and the goods have been properly cleared. It is therefore important that we get the right information and have close communication with the owner of the goods.
