EORI Registration – A Mandatory Requirement for UK


To trade goods across UK borders, businesses must obtain an Economic Operator Registration and Identification (EORI) Number. This unique identifier is required for dealing with HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) when importing or exporting goods outside the UK.

Who needs an EORI Number?
  • Businesses importing or exporting goods between the UK and non-UK countries.
  • Companies transporting goods across borders that require customs declarations.
  • Traders using freight forwarders or customs agents to handle imports/exports.
How ACEIIS helps with EORI Registration
  • Application Assistance – We guide businesses through the EORI number registration process with HMRC.
  • Compliance Checks – Ensuring your business meets the eligibility requirements for EORI registration.
  • Faster Processing – Helping you avoid common mistakes that could delay approvals.
  • Post-Brexit Compliance – Ensuring businesses remain compliant with UK customs regulations post-Brexit.

Without an EORI number, businesses may face delays in customs clearance, additional costs, and potential fines. ACEIIS ensures you complete the registration process correctly to streamline your trade operations.

  • Textiles, Alcohol, and Tobacco Products – Subject to UK customs duties, excise regulations, and licensing requirements.
EXPORT LICENSES & REGISTRATIONS

Exporting goods outside the UK may require specific licenses, depending on the destination and nature of the product. We assist businesses in obtaining:
