Our SPS & Veterinary Controls Support Services

Navigating Veterinary and SPS Regulations Made Easy with Customs Manager Ltd


In the ever-evolving landscape of agricultural trade, staying compliant with veterinary and Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) regulations is paramount. As the rules become increasingly stringent, many agri-food exporters find themselves grappling with red tape and complex procedures. From export health certificates to IT-systems like IPAFFS and TRACES, managing SPS controls can be a daunting task.


Recognizing the challenges faced by traders, Customs Manager Ltd offers specialized expertise and support in navigating veterinary and SPS regulations. With our dedicated team of experts, we are committed to simplifying the compliance process and ensuring seamless trade operations for food, plant, and POAO traders.


Here is what we offer.


Expert Guidance Every Step of the Way

Led by Arne Mielken, General Manager of Customs Manager Ltd and a renowned SPS and veterinary certificate expert, our team provides invaluable support to businesses navigating the intricacies of SPS controls. As changes to veterinary export health certifications are rolled out, leading to full border checks on certain animal and plant products, it's crucial for businesses to stay informed and act swiftly. Our support tools are designed to be an essential resource for traders, offering guidance and assistance every step of the way.


Streamlined Pre-Notification Process

Importing businesses into Great Britain are required to use the "Import of products, animals, food, and feed system (IPAFFS)" to notify enforcement authorities about imports of live animals, animal products, and high-risk food and feed not of animal origin. At Customs Manager Ltd, we streamline the pre-notification process by offering to file IPAFFS pre-notifications and upload Export Health Certificates (EHC) on behalf of our clients. Whether you're a food producer, retailer, or importer of plant products, we've got you covered.


Expert IPAFFS Filing Service

In addition to providing guidance and support, we offer a comprehensive IPAFFS filing service, ensuring that your pre-notifications are lodged accurately and on time. Our experienced team will handle all aspects of the filing process, from gathering necessary information to submitting notifications through our registered IPAFFS account. With our expertise, you can rest assured that your imports will comply with regulatory requirements and avoid any delays or penalties.


Efficient EHC Procurement

Our service ensures the swift acquisition of SPS Export Health Certificates directly from your EU veterinarians. By entrusting us with this vital aspect of your export process, you can rest assured that your agricultural products will meet all necessary health and safety standards for seamless trade.


BTOM & SPS Expert Risk Rating Determination

In addition to EHC procurement, our service includes expert risk rating determination in accordance with UK SPS BTOM guidelines. Leveraging our in-depth understanding of regulatory frameworks and industry best practices, we assess the risk profiles of your products to facilitate informed decision-making and compliance with import regulations.
