Direct access to TRACES NT
We have direct access to the TRACES NT portal, the EU's official system for electronic entry documents when importing animals, food and plants.
Veterinary clearance
Veterinary clearance in European ports
Importing animal products and food of animal origin into the EU is subject to strict veterinary checks. We take care of the clearance in Hamburg, Bremerhaven, Antwerp and Trieste, from registering the shipment through the move to inspection to refrigerated storage.
What we handle
From entry documents to refrigerated storage
We cover veterinary clearance in full: issuing entry documents, the logistics around the inspection and the storage of temperature-sensitive goods.
CHED-A and CHED-P entry documents
We issue CHED-A for animals (certificate C640) and CHED-P for animal products and food of animal origin (N853).
Moves to inspection and sampling
We arrange moving the container to the site of the veterinary inspection, sampling, transhipment of goods and storage in authority-approved warehouses.
Reefer power and refrigerated halls
We offer temporary storage with power for reefer containers and refrigerated halls for perishable goods or goods requiring a specific temperature.
Advisory and shipment-specific solutions
We look at each shipment individually: we advise on the procedure and look for the solution that delays it the least.
Direct link to veterinary authorities
We have a direct link to the veterinary authorities in Hamburg, Bremerhaven, Trieste and Antwerp. We have ten years of experience with veterinary checks and customs clearance; our customers include some of the largest logistics and transport companies.
Follow-up services after the inspection
After the veterinary inspection we can follow up with further services as needed: the T1 transit document, customs storage or customs clearance.
Certifications
Credentials that speak for us
The EU's highest customs status and a certified quality management system. Two credentials that show our paperwork and our processes hold up.

The EU's highest customs status. We have held it since 2013, and for you it means faster clearance and fewer physical inspections of shipments.
ISO 9001:2016 quality management
Our processes are certified to ISO 9001. The certificate was issued, and is regularly audited, by Qualiform.
How it works
From inquiry to shipment clearance
We guide you through the whole process and keep you informed as it progresses. Thanks to a direct link to the port authorities we handle inspections without needless back and forth.
Step 01
Inquiry
You tell us about the shipment you need veterinary clearance for and send copies of the documents. Once agreed, you deliver the originals, for example health certificates and fumigation declarations.
Step 02
Registration with the veterinary authority
We register the shipment with the relevant veterinary authority through the TRACES NT portal.
Step 03
Inspection slot and paperwork
We arrange the inspection slot with the authority and handle the paperwork, including moving the container and any sampling. We keep you informed as it progresses.
Step 04
Clearance completed
Once the inspection is successfully completed, we close the administration and hand over the complete documents, including the CHED entry document. The shipment can continue on its way.
