The right questions help goods move.

Customs clearance often starts long before goods reach the border, with questions that determine how a shipment should be handled.

✔️ What are the payment terms?
✔️ Who is responsible for the export declaration?
✔️ What is the country of origin?
✔️ Are the goods moving under duty paid, excise suspended or customs warehousing arrangements?
✔️ Are the correct documents and authorisations in place?

These details matter because no two cross-border shipments are exactly the same.

As highlighted in Kukla News, asking the right questions early helps ensure shipments move with the correct documentation under the correct regimes.

For customers importing goods into the UK, that can mean greater clarity, fewer avoidable issues and more confidence throughout the customs process.

Kukla Customs Division will be at Multimodal 2026 to discuss customs clearance, documentation, compliance and border processes with customers, partners and industry colleagues.

📍Visit Kukla on Stand 2000 at NEC Birmingham, from 30 June to 2 July.

The smoothest shipments are built on the right documents.

For imports into the UK, documentation is not just an administrative step. It is a critical part of customs clearance, helping goods move smoothly and reducing the risk of avoidable delays.

Commercial invoices, packing lists, export declarations, EMCS documents, HS codes, values, weights, quantities, country-of-origin declarations and REX details all need to be checked carefully and aligned across the shipment.

When information is missing, inconsistent or unclear, it can create delays, additional costs and pressure across the supply chain.

In Kukla News, Emma Canty, Trade Development Manager at Kukla UK, explains the details behind documents and customs requirements for EU and non-EU imports into the UK.

Read the full guide for a practical overview of the documents, terminology and checks that can make a real difference in cross-border logistics.

Seasonal logistics requires more than moving goods from A to B.

For high-value beverages, especially wine, product quality can be affected by summer heat, winter freezing conditions, capacity pressure and delays across the supply chain.

That is why planning, specialist equipment and experienced operational support matter.

As Chris Pryke, Operations Director at Kukla UK, explains in Kukla News, temperature-controlled logistics depends on careful preparation, trusted carrier relationships and the ability to secure the right solution for each shipment.

From refrigerated transport and temperature-controlled groupage to thermal liners, cool storage and route-specific planning, the right approach helps protect product quality while balancing cost, speed and reliability.

With seasonal demand often changing quickly, early planning can make a significant difference.

Read Chris Pryke’s full interview in Kukla News for more insight into seasonal transportation and temperature-controlled logistics.

The heatwave across the UK and the high temperatures in Europe require careful temperature control in beverage logistics.

For wine, beer, and spirits, prolonged exposure to heat can affect packaging integrity and, most importantly, product quality and flavour.

Re**er containers help maintain a stable internal climate throughout transit, protecting sensitive loads from external temperature changes.

But for the re**ers to work at their best, the cargo needs to be correctly prepared, pre-cooled and loaded with airflow in mind. With re**er availability tight across some trade lanes, planning is also essential.

At Kukla UK, we help clients secure the right temperature-controlled solution for their beverage shipments.
