Digital trade solutions provider and DP World company Community Network Services (CNS) has expanded its Customs Management services to The Netherlands.

Operating out of DP World’s Rotterdam office, CNS is offering Dutch logistics service providers, international shipping companies, cross-border trade partners and other logistics partners the tools to simplify and automate customs declarations, ensure regulatory compliance and optimise their supply chains via their dedicated online platform.

CNS said the expansion, which went live on 1 July, marks the first step in the UK company’s broader European expansion strategy. 

The digital platform offers a range of features, including automated customs declarations, real-time compliance monitoring, integrated data management and streamlined communication with Dutch, British and Irish customs authorities.

Mark Scott, commercial director of CNS, said: “We are thrilled to announce our expansion into the Netherlands, a key strategic market for our European growth. For almost 40 years, CNS has been the partner of choice for the movement and clearance of goods through UK and Irish ports, so we are delighted to begin operations in The Netherlands which will bring significant value to Dutch businesses.

“This expansion is a testament to our commitment to providing digital solutions that deliver speed, simplicity and cost-effective technology that enables a seamless, compliant customs declaration software solution – a must for cross-border UK-EU trade.”
