Import by container or truck made easy with Sertrans
Import by maritime container
The handling of maritime containers is one of Sertrans' core specialties. We focus on Antwerp to guarantee a professional, responsive, and perfectly coordinated service.
We master the import procedures via the Port of Antwerp, the essential logistics hub for Belgian importers. Do you have goods coming from Asia, Turkey, or other regions of the world? Our service covers the entire journey to your business in Belgium.
Comprehensive handling
Even before your container arrives at the port, we prepare all the necessary documents for its release. As soon as your vessel is announced, we take action. We handle:
-
The verification and processing of your import documents.
-
Customs declaration and calculation of duties, taxes, and VAT.
-
Management of commodity codes and additional documents.
-
Collection of the container(s) from the port of Antwerp.
-
Transport and delivery to your address in Belgium.
You just need to send us your documents, and we will manage the rest for you.
Do you import using groupage (LCL) shipping?
Don't need a full container? No problem. We also handle partial shipments (groupage) by maritime container.
We arrange the collection of your goods in Antwerp, prepare the appropriate customs documents and ensure their delivery, either directly to you or to our warehouse of over 3,000 m².

Planning ahead to avoid hold-ups
We ask that you send us your documents before your container arrives. This advance preparation allows us to detect any potential administrative issues and resolve them before your goods arrive.
The result : no unnecessary waiting time, immediate handling, and rapid availability of your goods.
