T1 Documents

T1 Transit Documents – Streamlining Cross-Border Movement

What is a T1 Document?

T1 transit document is required when moving goods that are not yet customs cleared across the EU or UK. It allows shipments to travel under customs control from the port of arrival to an inland customs office, bonded warehouse, or final destination, without paying duties and VAT upfront.


Why T1 Documents Matter

  • Duty & VAT Suspension – Goods travel under bond until they reach the clearance point.
  • Smooth Border Crossings – Required for moving goods between EU countries or from the UK into the EU.
  • Compliance Assurance – Incorrect or missing T1s can result in delays, fines, or seizure of goods.
