Import and export operations involve multiple carriers, jurisdictions, procedures, and document streams. Karlos Enterprises integrates forwarding and customs clearance into one operation, staffed by in-house shipping agents, customs brokers, and forwarding agents, so that a single team is accountable from documentation to destination. Full customs clearance under EU procedures, paired with inland forwarding across Greece and neighboring markets, handled by the same team, on the same record.
Customs clearance under EU procedures.
We perform full clearance for both import and export transactions, including:
- Import clearance under customs procedures 40 and 42
- Export clearance for goods destined outside the EU
- External and internal transit procedures: T1, T2, T2L
- Customs warehousing
- Temporary storage of goods
Free zone facilities
The free zone at our operating ports supports transit procedures and provides a controlled environment for goods awaiting onward routing. Our customs brokers maintain current expertise in EU and Greek customs law, with particular attention to the issues that arise in cross-border perishable cargo.
Inland forwarding, across Greece and beyond.
Our facilities are located at the principal Greek port nodes, allowing us to forward cargo anywhere in Greek territory and to neighboring countries with minimum transit time. Forwarding is part of the integrated chain: cargo cleared by our customs team is dispatched by our forwarding team, recorded in our WMS, and tracked to delivery. Over the years, we have cleared shipments of every scale, major and minor, across an extensive range of goods, from origins worldwide.
Within the forwarding chain we perform:
- Sorting and consolidation
- Labelling
- Palletizing
- Quality inspections, including the documented inspections required for fresh produce
- Inventory management as part of the warehousing operation
Each value-add is performed under the same pallet-level traceability that governs the rest of our operations, and reported through the WMS.
