Our customs clearance services in Mozambique cover the procedures applicable to the clearance of goods in import and export operations, as well as operations carried out under special customs regimes.

VBS works with accredited customs clearance partners, providing businesses with structured support throughout their processes, with a focus on legal compliance, documentation quality and operational efficiency.

Customs Clearance for Import and Export Operations

The customs clearance process requires compliance with applicable customs procedures and the proper submission of documentation related to each operation.

VBS supports its clients in managing these processes, from the initial understanding of the operation’s requirements to the preparation, review and submission of documentation to customs through customs clearance solutions provided in collaboration with accredited partners.

Throughout the process, we seek to ensure that documentation is properly reviewed and that the client is kept informed about the status of the operation.

Clearance Under Special Customs Regimes

In addition to import and export operations, our services also cover procedures related to special customs regimes, according to the characteristics and requirements of each operation.

These regimes may include:

  • Customs transit;
  • Temporary importation;
  • Customs warehousing;
  • Temporary exportation;
  • Other customs regimes and procedures applicable to the client’s operations.

Early analysis of the characteristics of the operation helps clarify the applicable requirements and allows the process to be properly organised before submission.

Our Customs Clearance Process

VBS adopts a structured process for supporting each operation and ensuring that documentation is appropriately reviewed before submission.

1. Understanding the Requirements

Once a client contacts us, we begin by assessing the specific customs clearance requirements of the operation. This stage allows us to understand the nature of the operation, the applicable requirements and the documentation needed to proceed.

2. Task Allocation

Once access to the client’s documents is received, the process is assigned to the relevant team so that the operation can be handled according to its specific characteristics.

3. Document Processing

The documentation is reviewed against comprehensive checklists, with the objective of identifying the elements required for the process and ensuring alignment with applicable customs procedures.

4. Quality Review

After processing, the documentation undergoes a final quality review. This stage helps identify potential discrepancies, inconsistencies or elements requiring attention before submission.

5. Document Submission

Once the quality review is completed, the documents are submitted to customs as part of the customs clearance process. The client is kept informed about the status of the process throughout its different stages.

Compliance and Efficiency in the Customs Process

Properly prepared and reviewed documentation is an important component of the efficient management of foreign trade operations.

For this reason, our process includes specific review and quality control stages before documents are submitted, allowing potential discrepancies to be identified in advance and helping reduce risks associated with incomplete or inconsistent documentation.

This approach combines customs clearance support with VBS’s experience in customs consulting and foreign trade.
