What Information Do I Need For New EU Shipments?

If you’re going to start shipping with Flexport in the EU, we’ll need a few pieces of information. When initiating a new EU shipment, please share the following with your Flexport team:

• If you have an EORI number, what is it? If you don’t have an EORI number, who is going to act as the Importer of Record?
• Under whose Value Added Tax (VAT) number will the import be filed?
• VAT: Do you have a fiscal representative (Limited Fiscal Representative/General Fiscal Representative)?
• VAT: Do you have a deferment account?
• What is the company's registration number?
• What is your registered address?
• Where is your legal entity incorporated?
• Where are you shipping to?
• Are you shipping to business or consumers (B2B/B2C)?
