How long does it take to clear customs for energy storage batteries in Finland

As customs brokers, we have cleared over 100,000+ goods from customs in the past years and on average it takes us about 7 days to clear our client's packages from customs. It is important to note that there are times when we clear goods in 2 days and sometimes in 14 days.

There is no set time limit for how long customs can hold your shipment before releasing it. Small delays of 1-3 days are common. Bigger issues like prohibited items or legal violations can lead to packages being held for weeks or longer. On average, most shipments clear customs within 3-5 days.

We arrange the logistics of the cleared package to their desired destination within 1-3 days depending on the distance from the port. You can also choose to use our warehousing service to store your goods in our warehouses in Nigeria, the USA, Dubai, China, and London. Customs clearance can take a day, 2 days, 3 days, 7 days or even weeks.

It can stay up to 6 months. But it's important to know what can happen. First, you have 15 days to pay your duties. Once that deadline is exceeded, the cargo is declared as General Order (GO) merchandise and goes into a customs bonded warehouse.

The first thing you'll encounter is the customs duty, which is calculated based on the battery's classification under the Harmonized System (HS). This is an international system that classifies products, and it's what many countries use to determine import duties.

Import duties and fees, based on battery classification under the Harmonized System apply. Strict adherence to these regulations not only guarantees safe, responsible business practices but also navigates the complexities of custom regulations. Stick around, there's more to be unraveled.
