Bonded warehousing
Storing the goods under “customs bond” suspends the payment until the moment that the goods are actually delivered to a destination in the EU. When goods are brought into the European Union (EU), VAT and other import levies become due and should be paid. When the goods are either not directly required or even not actually sold yet, these costs have an impact on your financial position.
Storage in a Bonded Warehouse offers a solution for medical equipment. There is no limit on the period of storage. Alternatively the goods can also be released from storage using a Customs Transport document for delivery to any destination. This shifts the responsibility for the actual place and moment of import to the receiving party. This flexibility can result in considerable cash flow advantages for non-EU entrepreneurs.
