Embassy Freight Services UK is proud to present the opening of the eCommerce warehouse last week.

Our eCommerce warehouse is situated at London Heathrow Airport and Robert Hodge - who has 30 years experience in Warehouse Management - is taking care of all the specific operations.

The eCommerce market is changing at an extremely fast pace and what we are working on at present will really take us to the forefront in the UK, which is the largest eCommerce market in Europe.

Embassy's opening fulfilment customer is www.biotree.earth so Embassy Freight Services UK can add value in taking a lot of their customer service functions off their workload to free them up and concentrate on growing their business.

Shipments to Cameroon need to be accompanied by a BESC (Bordereau Électronique de Suivi des Cargaisons) document, also known as a waiver.

A NIF number and PR number is now needed to get your waiver validated.
Every importer needs to be registered by applying for a NIF (Numero d'Identifacation Fiscale) number. With this unique NIF number, the importer can obtain a transaction number starting with PRxxxx. This PR number differs per shipment and has to be mentioned on the BESC document.
Both numbers need to be communicated to the shipper. Without this PR number, shipments will not be accepted and the BESC document cannot be validated.
