❌We have recently taken the difficult decision to suspend our agency service on the Harwich/Hull-Hoek routes. 🇬🇧🔜🇳🇱

🛃The average process time over the Summer has been 3.5hrs, the vets always late, and insist on taking the horses off the lorry for inspection. This we find dangerous and unacceptable. ⏰

✅The route from Hoek-GB remains fully open and makes up around 30% of our trade from Mainland EU. This route works well and working without issue. 🇳🇱🔜🇬🇧

We thank everyone for their support and understanding of this decision.

A sad farewell 👋 and good luck ☘️ to the fabulous Millie who today leaves our office team. Millie works behind the scenes profiling events & applying for health papers. We wish her well as she heads off to the Royal Agricultural University.
Thank you Millie, you’ve been a pure pleasure and will be a hard act to follow. 💔

This does not affect travel between GB-N.Ireland and the long standing agreement within the Island of Ireland.

Your ATA carnet will go digital from the 1st June 2026. Thing to know are;

📆 1st June any carnets issued by ourselves will automatically go digital for all movements between GB, EU and Switzerland.

🛃 You will still need to attend a border control for a digital stamp by the respective governing authorities (eg, Border Force).

🧑‍⚕️This does not affect a horse’s health status, health papers and inspections are still required.

👨‍💻You do not need download any app. Bramhams remains the carnet holder, we simply provide you with QR codes to scan at the Border Controls. We will pre-fill the digital carnet with intended movements.

🖨️The introduction of the digital carnet is a phased in approach. Technical issues are to be expected and a large proportion of the Borders Controls have to date received low levels of training. Therefore we will continue for at least the next 6-12mths provide printed carnets for travel which can be used as fall back. The transition period maybe extended but is expected to be fully digitalised for Worldwide travel by June 2028.

💷The cost of carnets remains the same and those with existing valid carnets from ourselves will automatically get converted to digital on 18th May ahead of the commence date. Those exporting before 1st June will need return via a paper carnet.

💰Those that use our Bramhams Bond to guarantee against customs debts will be able to continue to do so.
