Uncertainty is the reality facing the Logistics industry at the moment in the months running up to Brexit. It has been suggested that the UK’s leading haulage and logistics corporations will require 50,000 new custom agents to fill gaps and deal with the major delays anticipated in the new year. The implications of the regulations will likely have an impact on most companies and are due to take effect from Jan 1st 2021!
ISO 17712:2013
To ensure your cargo meets the required Industry standards, we recommend that all cargo is sealed and secured by an ISO17712 Certified and HMRC Group 1 UK Customs accepted seal. ISO 17712 certified seals ensure that the mechanical seals are acceptable for securing freight in containers in International commerce and are a recognised standard. The HMRC customs accepted seals have been tested and approved by HMRC and the UK Border force for use on Cargo being imported and exported for the UK.
