Yes. We provide EU retrievals & returns with secure transport, broker liaison, and import clearance into the UK. We reconcile serial numbers, provide chain-of-custody, and handle duty/VAT depending on origin and regime (permanent or temporary). If the gear left the UK on an ATA Carnet we’ll coordinate exit/entry stamping to avoid unexpected charges.
For most shipments you’ll need a commercial invoice (or pro-forma), commodity (HS) codes, accurate values, Incoterms (e.g., DAP or DDP), EORI numbers for exporter/importer, and origin statements. We can raise or check paperwork, arrange T1 transit documents, and pre-lodge entries with partner brokers to minimise border delays. Where appropriate, we’ll advise on IPR/OPR for repair/processing and the best duty/VAT treatment.
Yes. We prepare and manage ATA Carnets for temporary export of AV kit, demo equipment, and trade-show assets across the EU and beyond. Our team advises on carnet routing, security, and counterfoil stamping, coordinates with venues and brokers, and ensures re-import without duties.
