Importer of Record and Pre-Shipment Documentation

Importer of Record

Like other locations in Europe, utilizing Importer of Record services in Slovenia is fairly common and uncomplicated. If you have a European entity with an import license, FGX can help you act as your own Importer of Record and assist in the VAT reclamation process once your shipment is finalized. If you are not eligible to act as your own Importer of Record or prefer to utilize an Importer of Record provider, FGX can provide our services as part of our supply-chain solution.

If you are acting as the importer in Slovenia, with your Slovak EORI#, you will also need to complete a customs POA form.

EORI

You will need an EORI number for any imports into the EU. Your EORI number allows customs to track your shipment throughout Europe and is an extension of your VAT number. If you are acting as your own Importer of Record then you will need your own EORI number. Registering for your own VAT ID in Slovenia will enable you to submit VAT reclamations on eligible imports. Please read our VAT reclamation article here for more information.

IT Shipping & Logistics

The shipping and logistics process is relatively quick. Airfreight takes three to four days, customs clearance takes about one to two days, and last-mile delivery within metro areas is next day. If you have a knowledgeable supply-chain provider you should be able to complete your shipment, end-to-end, within a week or less.
