CUSTOMS in Antwerp and Rotterdam are becoming increasingly strict about clearing units shipped from the United Kingdom by the Transport Ferry Service in cases where there is insufficient information on bills of lading and manifests. The Belgian authorities say that the number of cases/packages is in many instances not being shown. The Dutch authorities must have the exact weight of the load, and details should also be more accurate.
The Transport Ferry Service points out that delays through lack of information for these authorities are serious and costly and all shippers and hauliers are urged to ensure that they always provide complete information.
