The space is operated with the approval of the customs and tax office and is located <strong>under constant customs supervision<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is not possible to store undeclared goods in normal storage space - that is what you need a bonded warehouse for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How long can the goods be stored there?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>No time restrictions.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike a temporary storage warehouse (where the limit is 90 days), goods in a bonded warehouse can remain as long as you need - <strong>even for many months or years<\/strong>, as long as this is in line with the documentation and the business objectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can only part of the goods be moved out?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes. The bonded warehouse offers the possibility of <strong>flexible batch management<\/strong> - you can clear the goods consecutively, exactly when you need to. In this way, you pay duty and VAT only on the portion of the goods actually placed on the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What can be done with the goods?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In customs warehousing, the so-called 'customs' are allowed. <strong>customs repair procedures<\/strong>. You can, among other things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>repackaging of goods,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>label,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>divide the parties,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>prepare goods for further distribution or export.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This makes a huge difference to temporary storage, where only basic maintenance is possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What documents are in force?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Goods are placed in a customs warehouse under the customs warehousing procedure, with the corresponding declaration in the customs system. Records and documentation can be outsourced to our agency - we will guide you through the entire process comprehensively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\ud83d\udd04 Customs warehouse or <a href=\"https:\/\/alfaagencjacelna.pl\/en\/temporary-storage-which-is-prior-to-customs-clearance\/\">temporary storage facility<\/a>?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Feature<\/th><th><strong>Bonded warehouse<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Temporary storage warehouse<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Storage time<\/td><td>Unlimited<\/td><td>Maximum 90 days<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Possible operations<\/td><td>Repackaging, labelling, batch splitting<\/td><td>Only conservative measures<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Objective<\/td><td>Deferred clearance, distribution, re-exportation<\/td><td>Completion of documents, research, preparation for clearance<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Documentation<\/td><td>Customs warehousing procedure<\/td><td>Summary declaration (DSK, PDS)<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why use it?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The customs warehouse is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>full control over costs and clearance times,<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>the possibility of flexible marketing,<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>option to prepare goods for resale or re-export,<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>professional documentary handling by Alfa Customs Agency.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Wondering if a bonded warehouse will be right for your business?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Contact us - we will advise, carry out the paperwork and provide comprehensive support.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class='fluentform ff-default fluentform_wrapper_3  ff_guten_block ff_guten_block-3 ffs_default_wrap'><form data-form_id=\"3\" id=\"fluentform_3\" class=\"frm-fluent-form fluent_form_3 ff-el-form-top ff_form_instance_3_1 ff-form-loading ffs_default\" data-form_instance=\"ff_form_instance_3_1\" method=\"POST\" action=\"\" ><fieldset  style=\"border: none!important;margin: 0!important;padding: 0!important;background-color: transparent!important;box-shadow: none!important;outline: none!important; min-inline-size: 100%;\">\n                    <legend class=\"ff_screen_reader_title\" style=\"display: block; margin: 0!important;padding: 0!important;height: 0!important;text-indent: -999999px;width: 0!important;overflow:hidden;\">Contact<\/legend><input type='hidden' name='__fluent_form_embded_post_id' value='1134' \/><input type=\"hidden\" id=\"_fluentform_3_fluentformnonce\" name=\"_fluentform_3_fluentformnonce\" value=\"071a70f7dc\" \/><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wp_http_referer\" value=\"\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1134\" \/><div data-name=\"ff_cn_id_1\"  class='ff-t-container ff-column-container ff_columns_total_2'><div class='ff-t-cell ff-t-column-1' style='flex-basis: 50%;'><div class='ff-el-group'><div class='ff-el-input--content'><input type=\"email\" name=\"email_2\" id=\"ff_3_email_2\" class=\"ff-el-form-control\" placeholder=\"E-mail\" data-name=\"email_2\"  aria-invalid=\"false\" aria-required=\"true\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class='ff-t-cell ff-t-column-2' style='flex-basis: 50%;'><div class='ff-el-group'><div class='ff-el-input--content'><input type=\"number\" name=\"numeric_field\" id=\"ff_3_numeric_field\" class=\"ff-el-form-control\" placeholder=\"Telephone number\" data-name=\"numeric_field\" inputmode=\"numeric\" step=\"any\"  aria-invalid=\"false\" aria-required=\"true\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class='ff-el-group'><div class='ff-el-input--content'><textarea aria-required=\"true\" aria-labelledby=\"label_ff_3_description\" name=\"description\" id=\"ff_3_description\" class=\"ff-el-form-control\" placeholder=\"Subject\" rows=\"3\" cols=\"2\" data-name=\"description\" ><\/textarea><\/div><\/div><div class='ff-el-group    ff-el-input--content'><div class='ff-el-form-check ff-el-tc'><label aria-label='I consent to being contacted by telephone for the purpose of handling this application.
