Export procedures

Customs import declaration

All goods imported into the European Union (EU) must be declared to the customs authorities of the respective Member State using the Single Administrative Document (SAD). This document, in the same format and layout, is used throughout the EU to declare imports, each EU Member State having it printed in their own language. The SAD allows a legal declaration for the import of goods to be made on one single form. The SAD gives all the information needed for a complete picture of the goods and the status of the shipment.
