Customs clerk
Sanitary inspections - veterinary inspections.
Much more than customs clerks
The profession of customs clerk with veterinary expertise on the Nord-Pas-de-Calais coast is a key position to ensure the food safety and health of goods imported or exported in the region. Customs clerks are responsible for inspecting customs documents and goods passing through the region's ports. They ensure that the goods comply with the current regulations on animal health and consumer protection.
What do we actually do as customs clerks?
Our customs clerks specializing in veterinary expertise have in-depth knowledge of legislation regarding animal health, food safety, and customs documents.
They inspect live animals, meat products, dairy products, fishery products, and plant products to ensure that they pose no risk to human or animal health.
The expertise of our customs agents at your service
Throughout these steps, the designated ASA clerk ensures that control and inspection formalities are carried out under suitable conditions and with the best possible efficiency.
At the end of the inspection, in the case of a favorable control, ASA also ensures that the T1 passage, ATA Carnet, or any other official document are processed in France for import or export.
Where can you find us?

Why choose ASA expertise?
Expertise & reliability
Since the beginning of Brexit, we have been providing health and veterinary assistance upon your arrival in France or to cross the border to Great Britain. We have developed close relationships with our transport partners in the territory. Similarly, each request is studied by our veterinary and health experts, who make it a point of honor to maintain very good customer contact.
ASA has the "interested party in loading" status provided by the mandate and is therefore able to establish CHED based on an Export Health Certificate (EHC). This formality is necessary to allow pre-notification prior to documentary, identity, or physical controls. Our team of customs clerks consists of health and veterinary experts who are capable of handling all types of goods, live animals, food products, plants, etc., and therefore provide CHED A, CHED D, CHED P, and CHED PP.
The expertise of our customs clerk teams is therefore inseparable at our 3 dedicated sites, which are the Port of Calais, the Channel Tunnel, and the Port of Dunkirk. ASA has access and assistance for SIVEP at Eurotunnel (Coquelles) and relies on sister company BIMS in Boulogne-sur-Mer (fish/fishery products).
To summarise, the role of a customs clerk with veterinary expertise on the Nord-Pas-de-Calais coast is a demanding yet crucial job to ensure public and animal health, consumers' protection, and more broadly, compliant transportation.
