Good to know before importing into Netherlands
Rotterdam first
Most Asia to Europe services call at Rotterdam, giving you many sailing options.
VAT deferment
Dutch importers can apply for an Article 23 license to defer import VAT, which helps cash flow.
CE is not a sticker
Many factories print CE marks without the testing behind them. For buyers in Netherlands, we ask for real reports and flag anything that looks copied.
