Pre-lodgement works by ensuring that the export and import paperwork are BOTH completed before the vehicle checks in at the port of departure (unless it is a transit movement).

This is very different from the temporary storage model where containers can be shipped and even landed before they are customs cleared. The reason RoRo ports have opted for pre-lodgement is because of the volumes of traffic they ship, the lack of space in ferry terminals, and the need to turn vessels around quickly.

CustomsLink can assist you with meeting pre-lodgement requirements.  



When you choose CustomsLink you can onboard a list of hauliers who work for you. By doing this, once you have them set up, you can send them invites to contribute their transport information and you can send them documents electronically.
 



Certainly, we can assist with moving cars, motorcycles, boats, or similar vehicles. To ensure we provide the best service, we would need some additional information

  • Is the vehicle for personal use or has it been purchased?
  • What documentation do you currently have (e.g., import/export paperwork)?
  • What is the destination country?
  • Will the vehicle be transported as accompanied or unaccompanied freight?

Once we have these details, we’ll be able to guide you through the process and ensure everything runs smoothly.
