Warehousing Services
Alianza Global Logistics offers both long-term and short-term warehousing solutions to meet your specific needs. Whether you require regular access to your goods or need storage until you’re ready to receive them, we have flexible options available.

For goods that may be re-exported or haven’t yet been sold, we offer bonded warehousing solutions. Our bonded and non-bonded warehouses are located near seaports and airports across the UK.

Our warehousing services can complement your transport needs, saving you costs, or can be provided as a standalone service.

Customs Warehouse (Bonded Warehouse)
A Customs Warehouse, regulated by HMRC, allows importers to store goods without entering the UK market. This defers the payment of VAT and Duty until the goods are cleared out. You can also selectively clear smaller batches, reducing the customs tax owed.

Goods can be stored indefinitely in a customs warehouse, providing flexibility and cost savings.

Temporary Storage Facility
Approved by HMRC, temporary storage facilities function similarly to bonded warehouses but have a storage limit of 90 days. Goods must be cleared by customs before they can be unpacked.

• ITSF (Internal Temporary Storage Facility): Located in a customs-controlled area within seaports/airports, goods are stored until they are assigned approved treatment or use.

• ETSF (External Temporary Storage Facility): Located outside of the seaport/airport, goods are stored until customs treatment is applied.

• ETSFAD: A special facility for storing personal or household goods temporarily.
