01 / T1 FOR YOUR ROUTE
T1 for Belgian ports, warehouses and airports
A T1 customs document is used mainly for non-Union goods moving under customs supervision to the customs office of destination.
Our work includes cargo leaving the Port of Antwerp-Bruges, customs warehouses and Belgian airports. We prepare the declaration for your route and confirm the customs offices involved.
If your cargo will move from a port to a customs warehouse in Belgium before continuing, send the warehouse address and final destination. We will confirm where T1 starts and ends, taking the warehouse stop into account.
