Question

Who can ship goods from the UK?

Answer

If you are a private individual then you are free to ship your own personal goods, or items that you are selling, from the UK without any special permission from Customs & Excise.

However if you are a business and want to export goods to a country outside of the European Union then legally you will need to be a registered as an 'Business Exporter' and you must obtain an EORI Number.

For more information about EORI Numbers please see the HM Customs Website or contact one of our experienced shipping advisors.
