Are you a German shipper looking to simplify your export process? If you look at one of the first steps of your shipping process, you’ll see that you need to file export declarations to the German customs authorities. This step is where you optimize to streamline your exporting for faster processing!
If your goods are valued at more than 1,000 euros and/or weigh more than 1,000 kg, then federal regulation requires all German exporters shipping out of the EU to file their export declarations through Automatisiertes Tarif-und Lokales Zollabwicklungssystem Zoll (ATLAS Zoll). The regulation includes all means of transport you decide on!
As we've turned into the new year of 2021, EU-mandated regulations now includes the UK, excluding Northern Ireland, in the customs process. Now post-Brexit, German shippers exporting to the UK must file their export declarations through ATLAS.
Using an SAP-integrated export software, quickly file German export declarations for shipments out of the EU. Consider ShipATLAS, a German export system software that allows you to automate and comply with the export declaration process!
