Case Study: Securing Carnets For Multiple Countries For High-Value And Complex Goods
Securing a carnet can be difficult at the best of times. When your journey involves transporting high-value and complex goods across multiple European borders, it gets more challenging. Read how Carnet Wizard helped a company clear eight customs stops without delay.
The Challenge They Faced
Transporting high-value and complex goods across Europe requires the proper documentation for smooth clearance at customs. Paperpoms UK found the process even more complicated as it needed an ATA Carnet to transport goods through multiple European countries, including Switzerland. The company needed help with:
Complexity of goods: Precise, detailed documentation was required. This is because the items being transported had to comply with stringent customs regulations across multiple jurisdictions.
Multiple customs stops: The journey involved eight different customs checkpoints, increasing the potential for delays or disputes if documentation wasn’t perfect.
Importance of professionalism: The client needed to ensure respect and efficient treatment from customs authorities at every stop.
The high-value nature of the goods, and the risk of delays with multiple border crossings, meant that the client needed assurance, real-time support, and confidence for their entire journey. That is where Carnet Wizard comes in.
Streamlining The ATA Carnet Process
1. Understanding Needs And Gathering Documentation
We needed to understand the nature of the items being transported. This would help us prepare the carnet for each stop on their journey, as there would be specific customs requirements for each.
The team conducted a consultation with the client and ensured all documentation was meticulously prepared to help them avoid any compliance issues.
2. Preparing And Delivering The ATA Carnet
Leveraging our expertise, we created an error-free carnet that detailed every item in the shipment, meeting the stringent standards required for seamless customs clearance.
3. Real-Time Support And Communication
Delays at the border can cost you valuable time and money. Our team was on standby for our client to help address any issues or queries that might come from customs authorities. We ensured immediate responses to emails and provided polite, efficient guidance whenever needed.
4. Reusability For Future Trips
The initial trip was a success! The customer then needed to make another journey with the same items, and we supported them in reusing the carnet. This saved them time and reduced preparation costs.
Carnet Wizard’s continued support to our customers ensures a smooth onward journey and saves them valuable time and money. We work with clients in different industries, with services to suit all needs from ATA Carnet preparation services to renewals and extensions.
