Customs RoRo

The Customs RoRo Service makes it easier to move cars and products between Great Britain and Ireland when they are transported by ferry. Anyone participating in the supply chain can use this service without needing any approval.

Key functions of Roll-On Roll-Off (RoRo) services:

  • Pre-Boarding Notification (PBN): This enables the submission of goods and vehicle information ahead of time, prior to departure.

  • Lookup Customs Channel: This tool establishes if a vehicle needs to be inspected by customs when it arrives in Ireland or if it can proceed straight.

  • Customs Check-in: This feature streamlines the customs procedure, which may involve inspections and authorisation for the removal of cargo.

By employing these features, the RoRo Service seeks to minimise port delays, assure compliance with customs regulations, and speed up customs operations.
