Rhenus provides a variety of customs services, including export and import procedures, transit and bonded warehousing, customs consulting, automated software solutions and related services such as tax consulting and fiscal representation.
As your customs service provider, we develop and implement Efficient and compliant customs clearance solutions that are adapted and customised to suit your international trade strategy.
As an authorised customs agent, we submit the required customs export declarations and supporting documentation to the government bodies (e.g. customs and tax authorities) on your behalf when exporting your goods.
When importing goods, we submit the obligatory import declaration and supporting documents to the customs authorities on your behalf. In addition, to facilitate your border crossing, we can offer financial services for the payment of the required customs duties, excises and tax to the customs authorities.
With EU customs clearance, we make it easier for Swiss exporters to move goods within the European Union. Rhenus supports you in acting like an EU supplier.
Transit is a customs procedure that allows uncleared goods to be moved under customs control across borders and countries. A guarantee is required to secure all potential customs debts. As an authorised operator, we can fulfil the required transit declarations and offer financial services to cover the required guarantee.
Customs special procedures allow you to temporarily use, process or repair your goods and get partial or full relief from import duties, or in some cases duty suspension. Our customs experts can submit the required customs declaration, e.g. for inward and outward processing as well as customs warehousing and temporary admission.
Customs warehousing (duty-free warehouse or open customs warehouse - OZL) allows uncleared goods to be stored in a designated location within the customs territory without being subject to import duties or other charges related to the import of goods or to commercial policy measures (such as import licences).
Rhenus has been handling all customs clearance tasks for imports and exports of vehicles for various car brands around the world for decades. Through IT networking with road traffic offices, Rhenus simplifies the processes so that vehicles can be cleared quickly and professionally.
