The CMR consignment note is the document that accompanies international road shipments. It is based on the CMR Convention and evidences the contract of carriage: who is sending, who is carrying, who is receiving, what was loaded and in what condition.
It is not a customs certificate. It is, however, often requested alongside the customs documents, and its details need to match the invoice and the declaration. Discrepancies in weight, number of packages or consignee can lead to questions or delays.
We check the CMR against the other shipment documents and help with filling it in correctly, so the road transport and the customs procedure rely on the same information.
Send us the details of your case and we will tell you what the procedure involves and what is needed.
