How we start

Importing through the port of Varna in 5 steps

This is how a sea import is cleared. Export and transit follow similar steps with different documents.

  1. Power of attorney

    With your first shipment you sign a notarised power of attorney for direct representation. You also need an EORI number.

  2. Shipment documents

    You send us the bill of lading, the invoice and the packing list. Add a proof of origin if you claim a preference, and any permits the goods require.

  3. Declaration

    We check the documents, classify the goods in the tariff and file the customs declaration electronically.

  4. Duty and VAT

    We send you the duty and VAT to pay. Once they are paid, and after any inspection, customs releases the goods.

  5. Transport

    If you wish, we arrange transport from the port to your warehouse.
