Denmark is one of the strongest consumer markets in Northern Europe, with the fashion retail industry active year-round in Copenhagen and Aarhus, and stable demand for branded bags and jerseys. However, Danish customs clearance is one of the more stringent standards in the European Union - Denmark does not have a tariff threshold, and all imported goods, regardless of their value, are subject to a 25% value-added tax; Starting from July 1, 2026, the EU will cancel the 150 euro tariff exemption, and low value packages will be subject to a fixed tariff of 3 euros per category; EORI and CVR tax numbers must be bound in order to declare; The label does not indicate the fiber composition in Danish, and Forbrugerombudsmanden came to the door requesting rectification; The brand authorization chain is missing a link, and customs directly deducts goods for infringement. We pass these checkpoints for our customers before shipping.
1、 Shenzhen to Denmark brand bags, jerseys, sea freight prices, timeliness
1. Shipping time for bags and jerseys from Shenzhen to Denmark
We are rooted in Guangzhou, Dongguan, and Shenzhen for container loading, and can handle both FCL and LCL shipments. Departing from Yantian in Shenzhen, Nansha in Guangzhou, or Dongguan Port, the direct voyage to Aarhus Port takes about 30-35 days, or you can transfer through Hamburg. The overall door-to-door delivery time is about 40-48 days. The full container load chain takes about 35-50 days (including customs clearance and delivery), and LCL takes about 40-55 days. Danish Customs processes customs clearance through the Toldsystemet electronic declaration system, with a standard clearance time of approximately 1-3 days. During the peak season from June to September, cabin availability may be tight, so booking 3-4 weeks in advance is more relaxed.
2. Shipping prices of bags and jerseys from Shenzhen to Denmark by sea
The quoted price includes all costs, including sea freight, domestic trailer customs clearance, Danish import customs clearance, customs duties, 25% value-added tax (Moms), and final delivery. It should be calculated clearly before signing the contract and there will be no additional charges in the future.
2、 Customs clearance documents and process for shipping bags and jerseys from Shenzhen to Denmark: four levels of clearance, none of which can be relaxed
First level: EORI number - the hard threshold for customs clearance
Danish Customs requires all importers to hold a valid EORI number. Denmark has a convenient place for exporters - EORI number is the CVR number of the enterprise with "DK" added in front. When the enterprise registers the CVR, it automatically obtains the EORI number without the need for a separate application. When registering as an importer, it is necessary to provide a guarantee for customs duty payment at the same time. You can choose to join the guarantee system of the Danish tax authority (with a fee of 3.5 ‰ of the customs duty amount), or choose to pay in cash. EORI can be applied for online through the SKAT official website and is usually approved within 1-3 days. When using DDP double clearance and tax inclusive services, the freight forwarder acts as the importer to complete EORI related administrative work. EORI information must be confirmed in place before shipment.
Second level: Commercial invoice - the core basis for Toldsystemet declaration
Danish customs require the submission of commercial invoices, which must include the names and addresses of both the buyer and seller, invoice number and date, detailed description of the goods (including HS code), quantity, unit price and total price, transaction conditions (such as CIF), and country of origin "Made in China". The AI Customs Automation Engine (CAv2.0) of Danish Customs scans declaration data and compares it with historical transactions and value ranges. Low risk declarations can be quickly released through the green channel. Commercial invoices should avoid vague descriptions and should be specifically labeled as "100% pure cotton women's T-shirt". The certificate of origin (if applicable) must be completely consistent with the commercial invoice information.
Level 3: Danish language labels - mandatory requirement by regulation 1007/2011
Denmark implements EU Regulation (EU) No 1007/2011 through domestic law, which requires textile labels sold in the Danish market to use Danish language to indicate fiber composition and percentage, in descending order of weight, and the labels must be durable, sturdy, clear, and readable. Article 18 of Bekendtg ø relse in Denmark clearly stipulates that those who fail to label textile products in Danish may be fined. The label must also indicate the country of origin "Made in China", the name and address of the manufacturer/importer. The label information must be completely consistent with the commercial invoice and packing list. Inconsistencies will trigger compliance review by Forbrugerombudsmanden (Danish Consumer Monitor).
Fourth level: Brand authorization - Danish customs can proactively detain infringing goods
According to the EU Intellectual Property Border Enforcement Regulation, Danish Customs has the authority to proactively detain goods suspected of infringement. Denmark is one of the EU member states with stricter enforcement of intellectual property protection, and customs carefully checks the authorization chain of branded goods during inspections. Brand bags and brand jerseys must be accompanied by a brand authorization letter, which must specify the authorizing party, authorized party, product scope, and validity period. Unauthorized goods are at risk of destruction after being seized.
Fifth level: Customs clearance process at the destination port (our Danish cooperative customs clearance agency handles the entire process):
1. EORI/VAT confirmation (before shipment): Confirm that the importer EORI is bound to Danish VAT, and in DDP mode, the freight forwarder acts as the IOR to complete the registration
2. Pre review of documents (during transportation): Submit the complete set of customs clearance documents to the agent for early review, and complete the Danish language compliance check on the label content
3. ICS2 Safety Pre Declaration (Booking Stage): Ocean freight must complete the entry summary declaration and provide the EORI number
4. Toldsystemet electronic declaration (upon arrival at port): To submit an import declaration through the Toldsystemet system, an EORI number must be provided
5. Customs valuation and inspection: With complete documentation, customs clearance is usually completed within 1-3 working days; In case of inspection, reserve 3-5 days
6. Tax payment release: payment of customs duties on behalf of others+25% value-added tax, VAT deferred to VAT declaration
7. End delivery: Delivery throughout Copenhagen, Aarhus, and Odense
Sixth level: Customs clearance documents
Customs clearance document list: original/electronic bill of lading, commercial invoice (including complete line item description and EORI code), packing list, brand authorization letter, importer EORI and Danish VAT number, certificate of origin (if applicable), fumigation certificate for wooden packaging (if applicable).
3、 Shipping bags and jerseys from Shenzhen to Denmark by sea with six red lines, it's troublesome to touch even one
1. EORI is not bound to Danish VAT - customs clearance is directly stuck
Danish customs require all importers to hold a valid EORI number (i.e. DK+CVR number), without which they cannot submit a declaration. EORI must confirm the status is valid before shipment, and the registered importer must also provide a tariff guarantee.
2. Label without Danish annotation - key focus of compliance review
Danish law explicitly requires textile product labels to indicate fiber composition in Danish, and failure to do so may result in fines. The fiber composition must use the EU standard fiber names, arranged in descending order by weight. Non compliant labels will trigger compliance review by Forbrugerombudsmanden.
3. Missing brand authorization letter - Customs actively seized goods
Danish customs has the right to proactively detain suspected infringing goods and carefully verify the authorization chain of branded goods during inspection. The authorization letter for brand bags and jerseys must be complete, and the scope of authorization must clearly include the Denmark/EU region.
4. New tariff policy in July 2026- cancellation of small exemptions
Starting from July 1, 2026, the tariff exemption for packages below 150 euros will be officially cancelled and replaced with a fixed tariff of 3 euros per product category. Even if the value of a single item is very low, as long as it enters the EU customs territory, tariffs and 25% Moms need to be paid. Transition period until July 1, 2028.
5. Comprehensive taxes and fees up to 37% - quotation must be calculated in advance
The comprehensive tax on Danish clothing and textiles is about 37% (12% tariff+25% VAT), which is one of the highest comprehensive tax burdens in Europe. It is recommended to include all taxes and fees in the cost during the quotation stage to avoid cost control after arrival at the port.
6. Wooden packaging without IPPC marking - Denmark implements ISPM 15 standard
Denmark implements the EU ISPM 15 standard, which is managed by the Wood Packaging Processing and Labeling Program of the Danish Agriculture, Fisheries and Food Authority. Solid wood pallets and wooden boxes must undergo heat treatment (HT) or dielectric heating (DH), and the core temperature of the wood must reach 56 ℃ for at least 30 minutes. The wood must be peeled. The IPPC logo must be permanent, clear, and readable, and should be marked at least in one location on the wooden packaging unit. The residual width of bark shall not exceed 3 centimeters, and the area of bark with a width greater than 3 centimeters shall not exceed 50cm ². Wooden materials such as plywood, particleboard, and fiberboard that have undergone adhesive and hot pressing processing are exempt from treatment. It is recommended to prioritize using plywood fumigation free pallets or plastic pallets.
4、 Shipping packaging requirements for bags and jerseys from Shenzhen to Denmark: three-layer protection, according to brand standards
1. Three layer protection: Brand bags and jerseys are of high value, and after drifting on the sea for more than 30 days and being transported inland in Northern Europe, the packaging can withstand it.
|First layer: Inner packaging | football jersey cover with dust-proof bag folded up; Put the brand dust bag in the bag, with paper balls stuffed inside to support the shape of the bag. Don't damage the hang tag washing label|
|The second layer: filling and fixing | the box is filled with enough cushioning materials (foam, bubble film, pearl cotton), and the goods cannot be shaken in the box|
|Third layer: outer box reinforcement | cardboard box, do not use soft packaging. Single box should not exceed 30kg, and single side should not exceed 150cm. The box should be sealed with a "worker" shape and the tape should be ≥ 5cm
2. Wooden packaging: Solid wood must undergo ISPM 15 heat treatment (core temperature of 56 ℃ for at least 30 minutes), with IPPC identification (including treatment company number, treatment method code HT or DH, country code), and the wood must be peeled. Suggest using plywood fumigation free trays or plastic trays directly to save time and money.
3. Special requirements for Danish/EU labeling:
-Label fiber composition in Danish using EU standard fiber names, arranged in descending order by weight
-Origin landmark "Made in China"
-Manufacturer/Importer Name and Address
-Labels must be durable, sturdy, clear and readable
-Outer box label, specific product name written
-Fragile items are labeled with "FRAGILE", and desiccants are placed inside the box to prevent moisture
The sea freight line from Shenzhen to Danish brand bags and jerseys is not about who has the lowest price, but who ranks compliance and taxes first. EORI binding VAT, Danish label on July 7, 2011, brand authorization control, wooden pallet ISPM 15 processing, 37% comprehensive tax included in the quotation in advance - we will go through these items one by one before loading the container, so as not to make up for them when the goods arrive in Aarhus. We follow the container loading process from Guangzhou, Dongguan, and Shenzhen, including sea freight, customs clearance, tax payment, and delivery. You hand over the goods to the domestic warehouse, and we will cover the rest of the way for you.
