Is your business customs compliant?

When was the last time you gave your customs processes a proper check-up? For many businesses trading internationally, it’s easy to assume everything is fine until HMRC come knocking, and by then, the costs and disruption can be serious.

That’s why we’ve introduced our new Customs Health Check service, delivered in partnership with customs specialists Gaston Schul. It’s designed to give you peace of mind, highlight risks before they become problems, and even uncover opportunities to save money on duties and taxes.

What’s involved?

This isn’t a one-size-fits-all checklist. The Health Check is tailored to your business and comes with a written report packed with practical recommendations. Depending on your needs, we can look at:

• Operational compliance: are your declarations accurate, and are your processes watertight?
• Tariff classification, valuation & origin: making sure you’re not overpaying duties and that you’re using Free Trade Agreements to your advantage.
• Licensing & certifications: from trusted trader schemes to export licences.
• Duty & payment management: finding ways to streamline how you pay duties and taxes.
• Risk management: covering sanctions, dual-use goods, and export controls.

Why it matters

Getting customs compliance wrong can lead to fines, delays, and reputational damage. But getting it right brings real benefits: smoother operations, stronger credibility with partners, and often, real savings.

Designed for international traders

Whether you’re exporting, importing, or doing both, the Customs Health Check is about giving you clarity and confidence. It’s not about catching you out; it’s about making sure your business is protected and set up for success in global markets.
