Fulfillment companies in Europe include a large group in the United Kingdom, and a brand that stores stock here is working outside the EU customs union and single market. GOV.UK states that the UK has left both and that EU law no longer applies. The transition period ended on 31 December 2020, and since then traders in the EU and Great Britain have had to submit customs declarations on goods that move between them. This page holds 242 businesses, from small prep centres to sites run by international groups.

Customs work sits inside several of these businesses. Woodland Group's Yorkshire clearance team provides customs brokerage, tariff classification and duty reliefs, and the Doncaster site has grown to 325,000 square feet. SEKO Logistics offers bonded warehousing and cross border parcel shipping from Milton Keynes. Cardinal Global Logistics in Manchester combines freight forwarding, customs clearance and warehousing. The EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement was signed on 30 December 2020, applied provisionally from 1 January 2021 and entered into force on 1 May 2021. It provides zero tariffs and zero quotas on goods that meet the rules of origin, but customs declarations still apply.
VAT rules matter to an overseas brand. GOV.UK says an overseas seller who owns goods of any value located in the UK at the point of sale must register and account for VAT on sales made directly to customers in Great Britain or Northern Ireland. A business can declare and recover import VAT on the same VAT Return instead of paying it at import, and no approval is needed. Whether a given brand needs a VAT registration or an EORI number starting with GB is a question for a tax adviser or the provider's customs partner.
On the freight side, all UK ports handled 428.3 million tonnes in 2025. London handled 19.6 million tonnes of containers and Felixstowe 19.3 million tonnes, and Dover remained the largest roll-on roll-off port with 18.5 million tonnes. Heathrow states that it is the UK's largest port by value, with GBP 293 billion of goods passing through it in 2025.

GOV.UK says an overseas seller who owns goods located in the UK at the point of sale must register and account for VAT on direct sales to customers in Great Britain or Northern Ireland. For consignments of GBP 135 or less that start outside the UK, VAT is charged at the point of sale, and the limit applies to the consignment, not each item. A tax adviser or the provider's customs partner can say how this applies to your brand.
J&J Global Fulfilment in Northampton (3.8 from 160 reviews) runs 12 fulfilment centers across five countries: the UK, the EU, the US, Canada and Australia.

Staci's Rugby operation (4.3 from 71 reviews) belongs to a pan-European group with 60+ fulfilment centres across Europe and the US.
Declarations are not needed for goods moving directly from Northern Ireland to the EU. A business moving goods between Northern Ireland and non-EU countries may need an EORI number starting XI, and an XI prefix goes before the UK VAT number on documents for EU customers and suppliers. The Windsor Framework was formally adopted on 24 March 2023. For a specific shipment, ask a tax adviser or the provider's customs partner.
Robert Guy Services Ltd in central London (4.8 from 49 reviews) specializes in the drinks industry and premium brands, with campaign logistics, asset management and e-commerce fulfilment.
