Our Assets

Since over 15 years, A.F.C.S. is active as customs broker, still by the same private owner. We consist from a small but very solid and devoted team that puts to the foreground all the assets you find on this background. During this period we have been able to put together a wide range of loyal customers and we are still the only fully independent customs broker in Antwerp. This makes us the best choice for you to fulfill all formalities in the most neutral way in Antwerp, Ghent, Zeebruges and at Brussels airport, against the best rates.

We are situated on the left bank of the Scheldt, a well chosen strategy at the side of the port in full expansion, where we can even offer an even bette rand faster service.

Our Service

Customs formalities are a quite complex and dynamic matter that require a constant follow-up and education. With our qualified personnel we constantly sharpen our knowledge in order to assist you in every possible way.

As a consultant we will continue to assist you to complete the right certificates and documents.

A.F.C.S. is AEO certified and this certificate provides advantages to you as business partner in the supply chain: less physical inspections and a better understanding with the authorities, in comparison to non AEO certified companies.

In case a claim is filed, we will mitigate, assist and treat this with the concerned customs department.

Fiscal representation

If your company is not registered in Belgium but you import your cargoes via Belgium, we can act as fiscal representative so you don’t need to pay VAT at time of import. In that case, we simply reverse the VAT charge to the advantage of your cashflow. We are registered by a “global number”, enabling to process and optimize the entire administration regarding VAT and Intrastat for you. Do you have an own global number for reversing the VAT charge? We can assist and advise you with the necessary requests in Belgium if your company is situated in the E.U. (except Belgium).
