If you require an urgent clearance, PJ Shipping can facilitate a fast, 30-minute express customs clearance service.
Our Express Customs Clearance process helps to speed up the clearance of goods through customs, reducing the waiting time and simplifying the procedures necessary for importing or exporting goods.
You might need an express customs clearance service for several reasons, all of which typically revolve around the need for speed and efficiency in moving goods across international borders.
Here are some of the primary situations or needs that might lead you to opt for an express customs clearance service:
Perishable Goods: If you’re shipping goods that have a limited shelf life, such as flowers, or certain pharmaceuticals, express customs clearance can help ensure they arrive while still fresh and usable.
Please note, that from the 31st January 2024, the document waiver code 999L has been withdrawn for all import declarations.
It is now mandatory to confirm the individual status for each control measure and the accompanying licence that could apply, on a per commodity code/item basis.
For all plants and plant products classed as medium or high risk will now require a Phytosanitary Certificate (PC) and a notification to the IPAFFS system.
Urgent Medical Supplies: Equipment, samples, or medicines needed urgently for medical reasons can’t afford delays in customs. Express services facilitate their quick delivery to where they’re critically needed.
Event-Based Merchandise: Goods meant for specific events, like concerts, sports events, or conferences, often have a non-negotiable delivery window, making express clearance a necessity.
This Express Customs Clearance service is critical for businesses operating in a global market where delivery speed can be a competitive advantage or when the nature of the goods demands rapid handling.
However, it’s important to note that while express clearance can significantly reduce customs-related delays, the goods still need to comply with all applicable laws, regulations, and requirements of the importing country, including safety, health, and environmental standards.
This service is available within our normal business hours and subject to Terms and Conditions*.
