We are pleased to announce a major milestone in the development of the Digital/eATA Carnet process. Until recently, our customers could only trial Digital Carnets when departing from Heathrow. However, we are excited to share that Edinburgh Airport is ready to process Digital Carnets as part of an ongoing pilot program!

This expansion is a significant step in making business travel and temporary export even more seamless for our Carnet Holders. The UK Border Force is eager to see how Digital Carnets perform in real-world scenarios, and they are keen to process more test transactions. This is where you come in!

If you are a Carnet Holder departing from Edinburgh or Heathrow, we encourage you to trial a Digital Carnet alongside your traditional paper-based Carnet. This dual approach not only ensures smooth passage through customs but also contributes valuable feedback to help refine and perfect the digital process. 

By participating in this pilot, you’ll be at the forefront of innovation, helping to shape the future of international trade and travel. Plus, you’ll experience firsthand the convenience and efficiency that Digital Carnets offer.

Ready to give it a try? Whether you’re flying out of Edinburgh or Heathrow, now is the perfect time to explore the benefits of Digital Carnets. Let’s work together to make the future of Carnets digital!

For more information on how to participate in the pilot, contact the Carnet team. Safe travels!
