CUSTOMS PROCEDURES

Processing of Licenses, Permits and Customs Certificates

At Gorian Customs, we understand that proper management of licenses, permits, and customs certificates is key to ensuring that any import or export operation is carried out efficiently.

Each shipment requires compliance with specific regulations and proper documentation to avoid delays, penalties, or unnecessary expenses due to delays.

Therefore, we offer a comprehensive service that covers all aspects of customs clearance, adapting to the specific needs of each client.

Why are Licenses, Permits and Certificates important?

International trade involves compliance with strict regulations that vary depending on the type of merchandise, its origin, destination, and use.

Certificates such as health, SOIVRE, RHoS, and packaging labels are fundamental requirements that guarantee the safety, quality, and compliance of products. Without them, a shipment may be held up in customs, generating additional costs and impacting the logistics chain.

At Gorian Aduanas, we not only manage the necessary procedures, but we also advise our clients to ensure that every step of the process is carried out correctly.

From document preparation to obtaining an EORI number, our team guarantees professional and personalized service.
