Sectors
Your industry has its own rules. We know them.
Labelling, licensing, health controls, type approvals. What holds cargo up is rarely customs itself, it is the sector requirement nobody anticipated.
Textiles, Footwear and Accessories
Demanding origin rules, quotas and intellectual property controls. The declared composition has to match the actual product.
Food and Beverage
Health and plant health controls, export certificates from the country of origin and Portuguese labelling. Tight deadlines because of shelf life.
Industrial and Equipment
CE marking, declarations of conformity and classification of parts and components that rarely fit under a single tariff heading.
Automotive and Tyres
Type approval, vehicle tax, registration paperwork and specific rules for parts and used vehicles.
Technology and Electronics
Dual use controls, radio equipment certification and electrical and electronic waste obligations.
Retail and Consumer Goods
High volumes, many references and campaign deadlines. Clearance efficiency is measured in shelf days gained.
Healthcare and Medical Devices
Registration with the Portuguese medicines authority, device certification and cold chain where applicable. No margin for documentary error.
Chemicals and Dangerous Goods
ADR and IMDG classification, safety data sheets and prior authorisations. Documentation checked before shipment.
Clients
What they say about us
Feedback from companies that trust their customs operation to our team.
We had a container held for five days and nobody would explain why. We called in the morning and by the afternoon we knew what was missing. The goods went out the next day.
Head of Operations
Industrial equipment importer . Leiria
What we value most is getting the estimate before proceeding. We stopped having surprises on the invoice and can budget our imports in advance.
Finance Director
Food distributor . Lisbon
They reviewed our tariff classifications and found three wrong headings we had been using for years. We corrected them before an inspection rather than after.
Head of Purchasing
Specialist retail . Porto
We work with a single point of contact who knows our suppliers. We do not have to explain the process every time we open an operation.
Supply Chain Management
Textile manufacturing . Braga
