Your professional uk customs experts!

We had a great experience with these guys!They helped us with the restoration of our goods that seized by HMRC and when we had questions they answered all of our questions promptly via phone and email keeping us updated for everything. Our case was difficult and complicated but they proved that if you have good partners you can solve your problems. We highly recommend this company to any Amazon seller having issues with unreliable freight forwarders/custom brokers as these guys can teach you how you can be 100% compliant with HMRC guidelines.

Hi Georgios - thank you very much for the 5⭐ review.

We are really pleased to have been able to support you through what was a genuinely complex and high-pressure HMRC situation. Cases involving seized goods, missing import documentation, and unreliable freight forwarders are never straightforward, so your feedback means a lot to our team.

At Customs Gateway, we specialise in exactly these kinds of difficult cases. We focus on building clear, evidence-led submissions, working directly with HMRC, and guiding clients through the process so issues are resolved properly and compliantly, especially for Amazon sellers who need certainty and speed.

Thank you again for trusting us as your customs partner and for your recommendation. We wish you continued success with your business.

Hi Steve, thank you for the 5★ review!

We are glad we could help you get everything sorted quickly and correctly. Merchandise-in-Baggage (MIB) can be tricky when you’re hand-carrying commercial goods, so it’s great to see everything now fully compliant and ready for your VAT records.

For anyone travelling with goods for resale, we handle the full process, including CDS declarations, retrospective entries, and HMRC liaison, so your imports are cleared properly every time.

Thanks again for choosing Customs Gateway.

Hi Sravya — really appreciate the 5⭐ review!

Your shipment hit a last-minute clearance hold with storage charges looming just before your event. We know how stressful it is when conference/exhibition materials are stuck at the airport against a venue deadline. We prioritised the case, worked with the carrier to lift the hold, and ensured on-time release and delivery.

For anyone in a similar situation, we handle urgent carrier holds and deadline-driven event shipments every day.

Customs Gateway Solutions were…

Customs Gateway Solutions were outstanding from start to finish. They handled everything for my imported motorbike, from CDS declaration and valuation guidance to liaising with HMRC and kept me informed at every step. Thanks to their clear strategy and meticulous evidence pack, HMRC issued my NOVA confirmation within 1 day (usually quoted as up to 10). Professional, responsive, and genuinely on my side throughout. If you are importing a vehicle in the UK and want it done right (and fast), this is the team you want. Five stars without hesitation!
