High-value transport to Scandinavia and Northern Europe
Bridges and ferries lead to Scandinavia; distances are long, winters cold. Denmark, Sweden and Finland are EU members, Norway is not – customs formalities apply there.
What matters
- Ferry or bridge
- The route determines waiting and standing times – important for temperature-sensitive goods.
- Winter
- Cold and condensation when unloading are an issue for electronics and optics.
- Norway
- Not an EU member: export and import formalities as for a non-EU country.
- Long distances
- Plan driving and rest times.

Questions and answers: Scandinavia and Northern Europe
Does a transport to Norway need customs papers?
Yes. Norway is not an EU member; export and import declarations are needed.

Cold en route and condensation when opening. Insulating packaging and acclimatisation before opening help.
Does the transport go by ferry or over bridges?
Both are possible. We choose the route per destination, goods and date.
