www.getreadyforbrexit.eu – For cargo that resides under the pre-lodgement model, you as a transporter must take additional action before you proceed to the Dutch ferry terminal!

Pre-lodgement requires extra actions from transporters

One-time registration in GVMS 

In order to be able to use GVMS for pre-lodgement shipments, you must submit a one-time registration as a transporter with the British government. You can read here how to you will next receive a GMR for each shipment.

You must do this additionally for each shipment

In the British Goods Vehicle Movement Service (GVMS), you must first link the declaration made in the UK to your trailer. You do this using the MRN(s) provided to you by the UK importer or their representative. You specify the Goods Movement Reference (GMR) that is subsequently generated by GVMS when you make your ferry booking. Only if the ferry terminal has the GMR when your trailer arrives can your cargo continue without delay following its arrival in the UK.

This is what you need to check for every shipment

Which model does your client use?
As a transporter, ask for each shipment which model the British importer (or their representative) has selected: temporary storage or pre-lodgement. You need to indicate this in your booking with the ferry operator. This prevents unnecessary delays at the British border.

Please note! If you select the wrong model, this can often no longer be corrected after arrival at the Dutch ferry terminals. The shipment will automatically fall under the temporary storage model.

www.getreadyforbrexit.eu – Like the Dutch government, the British government is also making every effort to optimally inform you about all the new requirements that are applicable to transport to and from the United Kingdom since 1 January 2022.

Keep business moving – website

Lots of up-to-date information about the current and future rules for import and export in the UK is available at the UK government website Keep business moving.

Handbook for Hauliers

Through a Handbook for Hauliers, the UK government provides transport companies with a comprehensive reference guide detailing the rules for all different types of RoRo transport (accompanied and unaccompanied) between the European Union and the United Kingdom.

‘Keep Business Moving’ information booth Hoek van Holland

The British government has positioned an information booth outside of the Stena Line terminal in Hoek van Holland. Multilingual employees are available to answer any questions drivers might have about Brexit, the applicable requirements for entry to the UK in relation to corona, etc. The information booth is open daily from 06:00 to 22:00.

www.getreadyforbrexit.eu – Since 1 January, the UK government allows two different models for the entry of cargo into the UK.
A brief overview:

Model 1: Temporary storage

Goods entering the UK may be stored at a temporary storage facility at the border (often the terminal) for up to 90 days. As a transporter, nothing will change in your booking process or terminal visit. After having been declared to British Customs by the importer or their representative, the goods travel on to their final destination.

Model 2: Pre-lodgement

The British importer or their representative already submit the declaration before the ferry departs from the Netherlands. The transporter in the European Union must also take action before commencing to drive. Upon arrival in the UK, the cargo can next usually immediately continue, or the driver may be referred to an Inland Border Facility (IBF) for inspection.

When temporary storage, when pre-lodgement?

It is up to the British ports themselves to determine which access model(s) they want to use. The ports served by the Dutch ferry operators allow both models. Check this schedule for each ferry operator to see when temporary storage applies to your cargo and when pre-lodgement.
