Customs warehousing allows goods to be brought to Finland, stored securely, and processed as needed before their final customs clearance, onward transport, or re-export.
Customs warehousing is a particularly useful solution for companies engaged in importing, international trade, or re-exporting, for whom cash flow management and supply chain flexibility are critical factors. Since duties and taxes are paid only at the stage when the goods are released for free circulation, the company’s capital is not unnecessarily tied up in stored goods. You can also pick up only part of your cargo and clear only the batch you are collecting/sending, conveniently and cost-effectively.
The customs warehouse of Turku Free Zone Company is located in a logistically excellent position in Turku, close to the port and key transport routes. This enables a rapid flow of goods from the port to the warehouse as well as smooth onward deliveries to the domestic market or other EU countries. Storage takes place in monitored and secure facilities that meet the requirements set by the customs authorities.
In connection with customs warehousing, permitted processing operations such as sorting, repacking, labeling, and consolidation of goods can also be carried out without ending the customs procedure. This brings flexibility to the company’s supply chain and enables the preparation of products for different markets before final customs clearance.
Turku Free Zone Company acts as an expert partner throughout the customs warehousing process. If needed, the service includes advice on customs procedures, documentation management, and the practical operational management of the warehouse. Your company gets a solution that reduces administrative burden, improves predictability, and supports business growth.
Customs warehousing is suitable for both small import companies and large international operators who value a reliable, local warehouse partner in Southwest Finland that meets official requirements.
