Commercial Shipments

Import documents
All goods that are not in the category of gift parcels have to be cleared. The goods have to be reported to Customs by means of the so-called ‘Enig Document’ (a standard application-form). Apart from the application-form, there are forms required for other purposes. For example: certificates of origin and permits.

In order to take care of the Customs clearance for your company, we require the following documents:

1. Bill of Lading.
2. An inventory of your goods.
3. An original invoice.
4. A certificate of the value.
5. Import number / Export number.
6. Tax standing number.
7. KKF number (Chamber of Commerce and Industry).

When exporting goods for the first time, your company will not yet have an import number or export number. We can apply for these required numbers, with a certified copy of the entry at the Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KKF) as well as a certified copy of the entry at the Tax department.

When you are a resident and you want to clear goods once only, the following documents are required:

1. Form of proxy to obtain clearance.
2. A copy of your passport or ID-card.
3. An inventory of your goods.
4. An original invoice.
5. A certificate of the value.

Export documents
When exporting commercial goods, your shipment has to be declared to Customs by means of an ‘Enig Document’ and an ‘I.T.’-form.
If you use a company name when exporting, we require the following documents:

1. An inventory of your goods.
2. An original invoice.
3. A certificate of the value.
4. Import number / Export number.
5. Tax standing number.
6. KKF number (Chamber of Commerce and Industry).
