What should I send for a customs brokerage quote?
Send the product description, invoice or available commercial document, packing list, origin, route, delivery term and expected arrival date. State whether the company has an EORI number and which product-specific documents are available. The required documents must be confirmed for your goods and transaction.
What is EORI and when should I check it?
EORI is the identifier used when dealing with EU customs authorities. Check that the number exists and company details are correct before dispatch, not when the goods reach the border. The customs preparation guide links to the Romanian Customs Authority's instructions.
Does every shipment between two EU countries require import clearance?
No. Movement of Union goods between Member States differs from importing goods from outside the EU. Goods in transit or under another procedure require a review of their actual status. The country the truck comes from is not enough to determine the procedure.
Can the customs clearance time be guaranteed?
An estimated clearance time is not a guarantee. Incomplete documents, requests for clarification and official inspections may delay clearance. Request an estimate for your shipment and agree who will answer questions about the goods and documents.
Where can I request storage through Vadalex?
We offer storage services in Iași and Constanța. Before scheduling delivery, ask our team to confirm availability, the warehouse address and conditions for the period you need. Include the product category, volume, weight and frequency of arrivals and dispatches.
How should I measure a pallet to estimate volume?
Measure the external length, width and height of the loaded pallet, including the base and packaging. Use metres for every dimension and multiply the three values. Record the weight separately and state whether the loaded pallets may be stacked.
Is the calculator result a binding quotation?
No. The calculator provides an estimate based on your inputs and the assumptions displayed. The billing unit, period, minimum charges, handling and product requirements must be confirmed in a written quotation. Geometric volume alone does not determine the number of storage positions required.
Can you store wine or goods that require temperature-controlled storage?
Send the manufacturer’s requirements for temperature, humidity, handling and product separation. Acceptance must be confirmed for your goods. If you need climate-controlled space, a tax warehouse or a customs warehouse, request explicit confirmation of availability and the necessary authorisations before delivery.
Which Moldovan wines are available for distribution?
Ask our team for the current portfolio and stock. Specify the wine styles, quantity, packaging and sales channel you need. Producers, wines, the distribution territory and any exclusive rights must be confirmed in the commercial proposal before ordering.
What are VI-1 and VI-2 documents used for in wine imports?
VI-1 combines the certification and analysis report provided for by EU rules on imports of wine products, subject to applicable exemptions. VI-2 is an extract used in regulated situations, including certain consignment splits before release for free circulation. Check applicability for your shipment; the wine import guide includes the official sources.
Can I calculate import taxes from the wine price alone?
No. The calculation depends on the product, the value used for the assessment, origin, documents and the procedure applicable on the transaction date. Ask for a quote that separates duties and taxes from freight, representation, handling and storage costs. Preferential customs treatment does not automatically remove other tax obligations.
How do I contact Vadalex with an enquiry?
Write to [email protected] with the required service, company details, goods, quantity, route and period. For storage, add dimensions; for wine, include specifications and the sales channel. Request confirmation of services, conditions and availability before dispatch.
