Shipping personal effects throughout the world, Cargo Overseas personal effects division can help.  Cargo Overseas provide dedicated shipping of personal effects as well as customs clearances and freight forwarding from Manchester Airport.  We employ a specialist team who are experiencd in sending personal effects around the world by air, sea and road.  We have major contracts with several airlines specifically for the sending of personal belongings and have a receiving depot who are fully conversant with the needs of individuals who are moving overseas but do not require the services of a removals company.  From small suitcases to full seafreight containers we are able to provide advice and assistance with sending your personal effects from the North-West of England to anywhere in the world. 

With weekly slot bookings on Virgin Airlines into Lagos we handle by air between 1,000 - 5,000 Kilos of personal effects shipments each week into Nigeria with similar amounts into India, several destinations in the Far East and Africa.  Customers need to complete personal effects forms and we can handle the customs forms for the re-claim of VAT for overseas visitors.  With the consolidation of H.M. Revenue and customs staff at their centralised EPU in Salford it is no longer straight-forward obtaining the relevant H.M.Customs stamps to re-claim VAT on personal effects and the employment of a freight-forwarding company who regularly exports and imports personal effects shipments is key to re-claiming the true VAT costs paid on items bought within the UK. 

For inbound shipments Cargo Overseas can handle personal effects shipments at all UK airports and sea-ports.  With the completion of C3 forms signed and returned back to our central personal effects department at Manchester we can complete all electronic customs procedures for the swift customs clearance of your personal belongings through H.M.Revenue and Customs. 

If you would like any further information or advice on shipping your personal effects into and out of the UK please call our personal effects department on 0161 498 4902.
