40 Years of Customs Expertise: Streamlining UK–EU Trade for a New Era
Making sense of a complex trade landscape
Moving goods internationally has become a lot more complicated. What used to be a frictionless process is now layered with declarations, port delays and compliance risks. For businesses on tight margins or critical timelines, the stakes have never been higher.
That is why experience matters. And why our e-Customs services provide state-of the art digital solutions built on nearly 40 years of hands-on customs know-how.
A legacy of solving customs problems
It began in 1986 with a specialist consultancy called i2i. Back then, customs brokerage meant paperwork, phone calls and queues. i2i’s mission was to simplify the process, combining technical knowledge with practical support that moved goods faster and with less risk.
Over the years, i2i became part of SGS. And while the tools evolved, from paper forms to cloud platforms, the mission stayed the same. Today, that legacy powers a fully integrated e-Customs service designed to meet the needs of modern supply chains.
How our e-Customs services help

- Clear faster, with fewer errors: Use our secure eGTA platform to manage import/export declarations, transit, EMCS, GVMS, ENS, VAT and fiscal representation – all in one place
- Keep goods moving across borders: Where transit procedures are required, our TransitNet platform combines a user-friendly interface with our customs guarantees, covering UK, Europe, EFTA countries and Turkey
