EORI Registration Service

Does my business need an EORI number?

Obtaining an EORI number for international shipping reduces your compliance costs and, more importantly, speeds up delivery without unnecessary delays in the customs clearance process. Reduce your customs handling fees and get an EORI number for customs clearance.

If your business imports goods into, or exports goods out of, the EU, you need an EORI number. This applies to EU-based businesses and to non-EU businesses, including US companies, shipping goods into the EU.

FAQ

How long does it take to get an EORI number?

The timeframe for issuing an EORI certificate varies between Member States and their institutions. The procedure usually takes around seven days from when valid documents are submitted, without additional reiteration.

What documents do I need to obtain an EORI number?

The list of mandatory documents can vary between countries. In most cases, the required data can be found in your certificate of incorporation, VAT certificate, and a valid ID document. Your manager confirms the exact list for your registration.

Who can be my intermediary for EORI registration?

Registration doesn’t strictly require a third party and can be handled personally. However, for non-EU vendors it’s usually less costly to use an experienced EU-based provider familiar with EU bureaucracy and the local requirements of the customs or tax authority handling the procedure.

What businesses should consider EORI registration?

If your business exports from or to the EU, or handles imports into the EU, registering for an EORI number is highly recommended. The EORI number for customs clearance is a practical solution developed by the EU Commission to simplify shipping.

Do US companies need an EORI number?

If a US-established business ships goods to an EU-based customer, EORI registration is highly recommended and in some cases mandatory before the goods can pass EU customs. The procedure for a US-based business is similar to that for EU persons, though it’s highly recommended to use an EU-based service provider.

Are there specific EORI requirements for US businesses?

Yes. US businesses should register for an EORI number in the Member State where they first perform a customs operation that triggers mandatory registration. Specific rules are set by the national legislation of each Member State.
