Industry-led customs solutions and guidance to keep hauliers trading and compliant.
The world of customs brokerage is ever-changing. As the trade association for road transport operators, we are working with government and industry to provide solutions that work.
By bringing together the expertise of our policy department, our experience of customs procedures and the knowledge gained from serving the haulage and logistics for over 75 years, our latest initiative, RHA Customs Brokerage, provides a programme of operational guidance and practical customs solutions.
Since January 2021, customs changes have altered the way we trade and transport goods to and from the EU. We know that our sector needs guidance on what this means for their business.
Our team of experts have many years’ experience of working with haulage and logistics businesses and can offer in-depth advice on the latest information from government.
We have everything you need for preparing your clients and traders, remaining compliant, reducing risk to your business and keeping your goods moving into the future.
We are still accepting new customers and can provide a wide variety of services to suit the needs of your business.
We have developed practical customs brokerage solutions to give your business the tools it needs to continue transporting goods to the EU and remain compliant. We have two solutions, fully managed and online self-service, both of which have been developed to put the needs of hauliers and their customers first.
Taking the risk out of RoRo declarations.

The ideal solution for RoRo.
Our web-based service is a flexible and robust solution for simple RoRo customs declarations. For hauliers sending goods to the EU, we put compliance in your hands. The app is easy to use and intuitive; we provide full training and an onboarding process to ensure that both hauliers and their clients have everything in place to keep goods moving.
Saving you and your clients time and money.
The benefit of web-based declarations is that simple customs procedures can be integrated into your own working day without reliance on third parties, to ensure you stay compliant and at an economical price point.
Full support from the RHA.
At the RHA we understand the challenges the industry faces to comply with new customs regulations. We are here to help and we have launched this service specifically for hauliers; our fully managed online system allows the logistics industry to gain control of customs compliance.
Simple onboarding process to cover grouping loads, Safety and Security Declarations (SSDs), Goods Movement Reference Numbers (GMRs) and Goods Vehicle Movement Service (GVMS).
Easy to use system which allows you to give logins for your traders.
Scalable system able to cope with all of your RoRo declaration requirements.
Anyone importing or exporting goods between the UK and the EU will need to understand who is responsible for deciding how goods will be moved, who will move the goods, and who will submit paperwork on behalf of importers and exporters.
A Safety and Security Declaration is used by border authorities to analyse the potential risk caused to their territory by goods crossing their border. These declarations have been a huge challenge for hauliers over the last few weeks and we are pleased to be able to open up this service to the industry. These declarations are a requirement for all movements and are the legal responsibility of the haulier.
The RHA’s Customs Brokerage is now able to offer SSDs through our managed service to both new and existing customers.
