Borders Add Complexity
Taking kit abroad means customs, couriers and sometimes long waits. A missed form or delayed pallet can cost an event its main attraction.
Questions to Ask Early
Speak to a specialist freight agent as soon as the destination is known. We plan these steps on our international projects.
- Paperwork — what documents does the destination require
- Temporary export — how to bring equipment back without extra duty
- Timing — allow for delays at both ends
- Power and plugs — local voltage and sockets
- Local support — who can help if something breaks
