At Maritime Cargo Services (MCS) we understand both the complexities of Customs Clearance and the necessity to make the process as smooth as possible for our customers.

EDI links facilitate clearance through all UK ports (including Felixstowe, Tilbury, Thamesport, Southampton, Liverpool, Sheerness, Bristol and Belfast). As a result, goods are usually Customs Cleared within an hour of the vessel’s arrival and whilst still on board the ship.

For imports into Europe, MCS can also offer first-class Customs Clearance and warehousing facilities in Rotterdam.

We offer a free deferment account service to our customers enabling start-up importers to quickly establish their operations with a minimum of cost and inconvenience.

We can also assist with bonded shipments, IPR/OPR (Inward/Outward processing relief) and CFSP (Customs Freight Simplified Procedure) clearance requirements.
