We work with both HMRC and the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) through our partnership with British Chambers of Commerce (BCC). Let us help you ensure a smooth transfer to the UK-EUR1 and the UK Certificate of Origin.
We provide a range of commercial documentation services and can advise, organise and train your team, drawing on more than 30 years’ experience processing export documentation. As part of the BCC network, we’re aware of the latest changes to trade requirements, providing your business with up-to-date information, advice and signposting. Let us take the stress out of international trade, or develop skills with your in-house team.

Can I have an ATR document processed post Brexit?
No, the ATR document became null and void on 1st January 2021. At present there is no replacement available.
Should I use an ATA Carnet for goods being temporarily exported to the EU?
It is highly recommended to use a carnet for any temporary shipments of goods classified as professional equipment, commercial samples and/or destined for exhibitions & fairs. Since Brexit, many exporters turn to carnets as a quick, flexible and cost-effective way to get their goods temporarily imported into the EU.
Do I have to be a member to access export documentation services?
No, you don’t have to be a member to access the export service. Though, if you are a Chamber member you receive a discount of 50% off most documentation.
Can I have an EUR1 if my goods were not made in the United Kingdom?
Unfortunately, no. The goods need to have been made in the UK or have undergone a significant change to their manufacturing process. You must also check if there is a Trade agreement in place with the relevant country before applying for the EUR1.
