Ship to and from the United Kingdom with post-Brexit customs handled correctly. Through Felixstowe, Southampton and London Gateway, Baobab moves your cargo and clears it with HMRC so it keeps moving.
UK ocean trade is led by Felixstowe — the country's busiest container port — with Southampton and London Gateway close behind, and Heathrow as the principal air-cargo hub. We route inland to any UK postcode and connect short-sea services to the near Continent.
Since leaving the EU, Great Britain imports and exports require full customs declarations to HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC), a GB EORI number, and — for many goods — safety and security declarations. Duty and 20% VAT apply under the UK Global Tariff. We manage declarations and the documentation so consignments aren't held.
We run short-sea and road lanes between the UK and the EU, and deep-sea ocean and air services to Asia, the Americas and Africa. Whether it's groupage from Europe or full containers from the Far East, we engineer the route to your priorities.
