We declare goods on behalf of our clients, ensuring full compliance with customs requirements and accurate submission of all necessary information.
Car Post Clearance
We handle all paperwork required when the goods you are importing or exporting are vehicles, ensuring every document is prepared accurately and on time
Once your vehicle has cleared customs, there are still important steps required before it can be legally registered, sold, or driven. Our Car Post-Clearance service ensures nothing is missed. From NOVA submissions to documentation checks and compliance guidance, we make the post-clearance process simple, accurate, and fully compliant with UK regulations. Whether you're importing a personal vehicle, a dealership shipment, or a high-value car, we guide you through every requirement to avoid delays, penalties, or DVLA issues.
How It Works
-
Step 1: Post-Clearance Review
We assess your vehicle’s clearance documents to ensure everything is correct and ready for the next stage. -
Step 2: NOVA Submission & VAT Confirmation
We complete or verify your Notification of Vehicle Arrival (NOVA) submission, ensuring HMRC processes VAT correctly. -
Step 3: Compliance & Registration Support
We guide you through DVLA requirements, VAT evidence, dating certificates (if needed), and any additional post-import steps. -
Step 4: Documentation Pack Delivered
You receive a complete, compliant document pack ready for DVLA registration or customer handover.
Do I need a NOVA for every imported car?
Yes — all imported vehicles must be registered with HMRC through the NOVA system before DVLA will issue a logbook. We handle the entire process.
What happens if my NOVA wasn’t completed at clearance?
We can submit a post-clearance NOVA and resolve any VAT mismatches or missing information.
Can you help with car registration after clearance?
Yes — we provide guidance on required documents and prepare everything needed for smooth DVLA registration.
Is this service for dealerships or individuals?
Both. We support private importers, traders, dealerships, and fleet managers.
