Transporting medical devices quickly and safely, storing and distributing them to and within Europe, is a daily activity for MOL Logistics Netherlands in Tilburg. In this article, we tell you more about this medical logistics hotspot in Europe.
Fine-Meshed Distribution
MOL Logistics Netherlands, ISO 9001 and 13485 (location Tilburg) certified, provides fine-meshed distribution to hospitals, clinics, and laboratories across Europe.
We offer full end-to-end supply chain solutions: all necessary services related to medical devices logistics are provided. Our global customers are start-ups and multinationals in the healthcare market, such as Medical Device and Medical Technology (class I and II). Additionally, we also play an important role in managing customs formalities and other import formalities.
Storage in Bonded Warehouse for Medical Devices
Whenever goods are imported into the European Union (EU), VAT and other import levies become due and must be paid. If the goods are not immediately needed or have not yet been sold, these costs impact the financial position of the customer. By storing the goods under ‘customs bond’, payment is delayed until the goods are actually delivered to a destination within the EU.
MOL Logistics Netherlands offers a solution for storing medical devices with bonded warehousing. There is no limit to the storage period. Alternatively, the responsibility for the actual place and time of import, can be shifted to the receiving party. In that case, goods will be released from storage using a Customs Transport document for delivery to any destination. This flexibility can result in significant cash flow benefits for non-EU businesses.
