Customs

Focusing on customs practices is key to being competitive in today's trading environment. Companies need to optimise their management of customs challenges. Our specialized customs advisers can help you with this.

Global economy has led to increased volumes of imports and exports. This in itself requires closer monitoring of the cross-border flow of goods. For all companies that trade internationally, it is important to secure the company's supply chain, as delays in international freight transport can be very costly, but legislation in the customs field is complex and constantly changing.

Our customs advice helps you minimise the risks and increase the quality of your company's customs procedures. We provide qualified and independent customs assistance from customs declarations to customs advice and training. We can also contribute to the company's internal customs department, where we can guide/prepare procedures and processes for cost-effective customs management based on applicable laws and regulations.

BDO in Denmark is a certified Authorised Economic Operator (AEO). In connection with the certification, the Danish Customs Agency has approved BDO's professional qualifications and professional competences in accordance with the international standards that apply to the EU's AEO concept.

For the purposes of the approval, we have documented our own customs expertise and ensured that we comply with applicable customs regulations and that we are competent to execute custom procedures on behalf of our customers.

Through our expertise and more than 30 years of experience, we ensure you correct, coherent and cost-effective customs management.
