Businesses across East Lancashire can now take advantage of a fast, convenient, and cost effective ATA Carnet and Goods Movement References (GMR) service, available directly through your local Chamber of Commerce.

We are proud to announce that ATA Carnets and GMR’s, the internationally recognised “passport for goods” are now available on your doorstep, providing companies with a simple solution for temporary exports.

ATA Carnets and GMR’s allow goods to be taken overseas for purposes such as exhibitions, trade fairs, professional equipment, and commercial samples, without the need to pay duties or taxes. For businesses looking to expand their international reach, they are an essential tool that saves both time and money.

For those of you travelling with the goods in your vehicle, you will also need a Goods Movement Reference (GMR) provided by the Chamber.

Unlike many providers, the East Lancashire Chamber offers businesses excellent competitive prices combined with the benefit of a local service. Companies no longer need to travel further afield to process their documents they can now apply for, arrange, and collect ATA Carnets and GMR’s directly from the Chamber’s offices in East Lancashire. To make the process even smoother, the Chamber offers complimentary parking, ensuring a quick and hassle-free pick-up for busy professionals.

This new service is set to make a significant difference for businesses of all sizes, especially small employers who rely on international trade opportunities to grow.
