Ship from the UK to Europe. No Brexit Headaches. No Customs Surprises.
Your British customers love your products. European customers want them too, but since Brexit, shipping across the Channel is a customs minefield. Delays. Unexpected VAT bills. Angry customers. We fix that. Kontor of Bruges is your relay hub in Belgium, minutes from the Channel. Consolidate your EU orders onto one pallet. Ship it DDP to us. We label each parcel and inject it into the European carrier network at local rates.
Brexit Already Made EU Shipping Hard. It's About to Get Harder.
Since Brexit, UK brands have wrestled with customs paperwork, VAT rules, and unpredictable delivery times to Europe. EU customs regulations are tightening, and strict enforcement means every single parcel, regardless of value, faces rigorous formal customs clearance and potential border delays. We turn that complexity into a seamless local delivery experience. One pallet to our Belgian hub, just across the Channel. We handle the rest.
