Customs & VAT

Your gateway to Europe, without the bureaucracy

Our customs & VAT services

Most non-EU companies get stuck on VAT regulations and import duties before they’ve even sold their first product. We take over that burden. From general fiscal representation to complex documentation, we ensure your goods move across borders without the typical delays or hidden costs.

General fiscal representation

As your fiscal representative, we take full responsibility for your VAT compliance. We handle the registrations, filings, and all talk with the tax authorities. You avoid the administrative headache and keep your focus on selling.

VAT planning & advice

We help you set up a VAT structure that actually works for your bottom line. From minimizing import duties to optimizing your cash flow, we provide the practical support needed to keep your European operations lean and cost-effective.

VAT compliance

Managing VAT in different countries is a distraction you don’t need. We take over the entire process, from accurate filings to Intrastat declarations and EC Sales Listings. We take ownership of the complete compliance process.

Customs representation

We handle all the customs formalities for your imports, exports, and transit shipments. Whether it’s direct or indirect representation, we take care of the paperwork and the risks.

Bonded warehouse

When goods arrive at Schiphol or Rotterdam, duties and VAT are usually due immediately. In our licensed bonded warehouse, your stock stays fiscally ‘outside’ the EU. You only pay the moment you sell within the EU. Shipping to the UK or another non-EU country? You avoid EU taxes entirely.
