Importing into Mayenne (53): how to use special customs procedures to reduce costs and optimize your logistics?

, , , , , , ,
Sotecan International dédouanement import en Mayenne à Laval avec entrepôt sous douane et régimes particuliers

Are you importing goods into Mayenne (53) ?

Have you ever heard of special customs procedures? 

These customs simplifications, often overlooked by companies, allow you to defer or eliminate import duties and taxes.

From our base in Laval, the SOTECAN team supports you in implementing these solutions to enhance your competitiveness, while reducing your fiscal and logistical constraints:

  • Bonded warehouse at Coué Logistique in Laval (53): Store your non-cleared goods (all types) in a secure, customs-approved environment.
    Duties and taxes are deferred until the goods are released, providing a direct cash flow advantage.
  • Special customs procedures:
    • Inward processing
      Import raw materials or components for processing, repair, or re-export without incurring duties or taxes.
    • Customs authorizations:
      • Temporary Storage Facility (IST)
        • Store goods upon arrival in the EU for up to 90 days, giving you time to finalize logistical or commercial decisions.
      • Temporary Storage Facility (LADT)
        • Short-term storage (4 to 5 days) under customs control, offering maximum flexibility for inbound flows.

These procedures are not limited to large companies. With the right support, any importing business can benefit from them.

As a Registered Customs Representative (RDE) and AEO-certified operator, we provide:

  • Simplified management of your operations
  • Customs expertise for all types of goods
  • Optimized logistics coordination
  • Tailor-made support
  • A dedicated local contact

Boosting Agricultural Bulk Logistics with Advanced Cereal Tipper Transport

,
Cereal tipper transport by Coué, bulk agricultural logistics for wheat, corn, soybeans, and sorghum.

We are expanding our range of transport solutions with a new activity launched from our Alsace site in Balgau: bulk agricultural transport with cereal tipper trailers.

Our new 54 m³ tipper trailer, equipped with an automatic roof opening system, now allows us to handle bulk agricultural loads such as wheat, corn, soybeans, and sorghum with complete safety and efficiency.

This seasonal transport service, running over several weeks, focuses on regional silo-to-silo transfers. A dedicated driver supports each trading partner throughout the season, ensuring continuous follow-up and top-quality service from start to finish.

The products carried are then processed for human and animal nutrition, contributing to the agri-food supply chain across the region.

Looking ahead, we plan to expand this service by leveraging our Qualimat / Oqualim certification, already obtained for our animal feed bulk tanker operations, a true guarantee of compliance, safety, and product integrity in the transport of feed and food materials.
