Travelling With Freight

The carriage of goods to and from the islands, France and the UK is complex, multi-layered and often different in each jurisdiction.

The following guidelines have been put together to try and provide some further clarity. However, there are many permutations so if your own scenario requires further advice, we suggest you email freight-dl@condorferries.co.uk providing details of what you are proposing to do and we will revert as soon as we can.

CHANNEL ISLANDS TO FRANCE

Any goods moving to the EU from the Channel Islands for commercial purposes are required to be manifested* and therefore have to be documented as freight.

This can be acquired from Condor Freight at customs.clearanceci@condorferries.co.uk

If it is personal possessions (e.g.household goods) that are not new, an inventory should be carried to satisfy arrival Port authorities.

If the goods are new and over a threshold of 430 euros, an export declaration from the Channel Islands and import declaration into France is required and will be subject to documentation charges.

This can be acquired from Condor Freight at customs.clearanceci@condorferries.co.uk

St. Malo clearance agent email is: freight.stmalo@morvanvoyages.com

Please note that notification to Condor Freight for any declaration is required 48 hours prior to departure. Failure to comply may result in your detention by the authorities until the correct documentation is completed and VAT collected.

Same as above with the addition of a T1 Transit Document.

This can be acquired from Condor Freight at customs.clearanceci@condorferries.co.uk

Please note that notification to Condor Freight for any T1 documents is required 72 hours prior to departure.

We have put together a few scenarios to help illustrate the guidelines above. As stated, this is not exhaustive by any means but hopefully will help answer some of the common questions.

A University student taking household items to the UK for their academic year needs to have a full inventory* of the items they are travelling with so it can be presented to UK customs if required. No prior declaration of those items is required nor any cost incurred.

A Jersey resident owns a second home in France taking a lawn mower and other gardening tools to maintain their garden, they will be returning with it and the items are not new – This type of movement requires an inventory so it can be presented to French customs if required. No prior declaration is required nor cost incurred.

A Guernsey resident travelling with new white goods for a new kitchen in their French property, travelling one way – these items are being permanently imported. The value of these goods is more than 430 euros, as the value of the goods exceeds the threshold of 430 euros, an export declaration from the Channel Islands and import declaration into France is required and will be subject to documentation charges. This will be classed as a personal freight shipment and charged accordingly.

A Jersey resident, with a second home in Spain. Travelling through France. They are transporting household goods, such as a bookshelf and crockery. The value of these items is 200 euros, below the current threshold for French VAT, these items are not new. These items will remain in Spain permanently. An inventory of all items being carried will be required to satisfy French customs. In addition, a T1 transit document, available through Condor, is required to be submitted at least 72 hours prior to departure.

*An inventory is a list of the items being transported.
