Customs Clearance Greenock

The Port of Greenock is Scotland’s deepest container terminal, located on the west coast near Glasgow. It handles up to 100,000 TEUs per year, supported by a 372‑metre quay, 12.6‑metre depth, extensive warehousing and over 220 reefer points, making it a major gateway for Scottish imports and exports.

Greenock forms part of the Clydeport network and connects Scotland to global markets across Europe and the Americas. With frontline customs procedures, Port Health interaction and growing refrigerated‑cargo capacity, efficient customs clearance is essential for smooth cargo flow.

At Global Customs Clearance, we support shippers, retailers, food importers and industrial operators moving goods through Greenock with fast, compliant and precise customs‑clearance services.

Why Customs Clearance Matters at Greenock

Greenock handles a range of cargo types including containers, bulk freight, energy products, retail goods, perishables and industrial materials. Many shipments require strict documentation and compliance checks to avoid delays, particularly refrigerated cargo and foodstuffs subject to Port Health scrutiny.

The port’s growing investment in cranes, cold‑chain capability and transatlantic links makes accurate declarations and pre‑clearance essential to maintaining supply‑chain efficiency.
