Customs Clearance
Services
Paperwork handled. Borders cleared. Flow protected.
What we do
We prepare, validate, and submit your customs declarations with one goal: release on time.
Customs clearance that keeps freight moving.
No jargon. No guesswork. Just the right data, filed the right way, backed by a team that follows through.
EU & UK customs support under one roof
Bonded warehousing + clearance = fewer handovers
Proactive checks before filing (so you don’t learn at the border)
Core Services
What we can handle for you
Declarations, document checks, and release coordination—so goods can move into free circulation or into bonded flow.
Transit documents that keep freight moving across borders without delays and double handling.
Export declarations and exit formalities—clean, compliant, and aligned with your carrier timelines.
We check the basics that cause 80% of problems: values, origins, licences, product descriptions, and data consistency.
If customs asks questions or selects a shipment, we coordinate the process and keep you informed.
Bonded storage only works when the admin is tight. We align the warehouse process with the customs process—so your stock stays compliant and usable.
From non-standard declarations to special procedures—we’ll tell you what’s possible, what’s smart, and what’s not worth the risk.
Smart Border for Accompanied Road Freight
(Dover/Folkestone ↔ Calais)
Short-straits freight is won or lost on preparation. If the data is clean, the crossing stays smooth. If it’s not, you queue.
Middlegate runs the Smart Border customs flow for accompanied traffic via Dover/Folkestone ↔ Calais — so your driver checks in ready, crosses clean, and keeps the delivery promise intact.

Why it works with Middlegate
Clearance works best when it is connected to operations.
Customs does not live in a spreadsheet. It lives at your warehouse gates, your cut-off times, your loading slots, and your delivery promises.
Because we run warehousing and transport too, we clear freight with the full picture in mind. Less back and forth, fewer handovers, faster decisions.
