Customs is often the narrowest point in the logistics pipeline. Our team removes that bottleneck by combining deep regulatory knowledge with disciplined operations. We start with SCOR-style planning of the “plan–source–deliver” handoffs between ship agency, terminal, trucking and warehouse. Documentation is verified early—HS codes, origin, value, and Incoterms—to ensure declarations are correct the first time. Where beneficial, we advise on duty reliefs and special regimes such as inward processing and temporary admission, and prepare supporting files for audits.

For time-sensitive moves, our operators align terminal cut-offs with transit (T1/T2) openings and guarantee management, synchronize inspections (veterinary, phytosanitary, quality) and secure the necessary licenses or certificates of origin (EUR.1). We provide proactive status messages at every milestone—documents ready, declaration lodged, control assigned/cleared, release issued—so your team has a single source of truth.

Governance and transparency are part of the service. KPI packs track cycle time from document handover to release, first-time-right rates, and the causes of exceptions. This lets us continuously improve while protecting compliance. Whether your cargo is containerized, bulk, breakbulk or project freight, our customs clearance in Bulgaria keeps shipments moving through Varna, Burgas and Balchik without surprises—and with clear, auditable documentation end-to-end.
