If you want to import cargo from a non-EU country (third country) into an EU member state, it should be declared to the local customs authority. To avoid errors during the customs declaration, you should always have a skilled expert at your side to help you throughout the customs procedure. You can therefore rely on Van Dijle to take care of the entire administration and ensure smooth handling at import.
Customs processes at the port of Antwerp can sometimes become complex and time-consuming for specific goods. To avoid extra costs, goods are already cleared electronically and released by customs – even before the containers are unloaded from the ship. This saves time and allows goods to continue their journey to their final destination in the EU without additional delays.

Transit
When goods are transported across a country’s national territory, this cargo must be registered with customs at border crossings. Transit procedure is an efficient way to arrange the transport of goods between member states and non-EU (third country) countries. The relevant regulations and legal standards of transit procedures must be respected. That is why you can rely on Van Dijle.
For some goods, rapid transit is crucial, others need additional control where customs authorities want to inspect your cargo. And for some goods, both control and transit speed are important.
