Imports From Ireland

Import Freight From Ireland to the United States

Importing goods from Ireland takes coordination from your supplier’s dock through U.S. customs and final delivery. Averitt works with its international partners to arrange origin pickup, cargo consolidation and ocean and air forwarding around your shipment’s size, handling requirements and schedule.

For Ireland-to-U.S. imports, our team connects licensed customs brokerage and clearance with drayage, warehousing, and LTL or Truckload delivery. That gives your inbound freight and domestic distribution one coordinated transportation plan.

Our team can also arrange freight from Ireland to other international markets. Our International team connects origin pickup and destination delivery with the services available for your trade lane.

Exports to Ireland

Export Freight From the United States to Ireland

Exporting goods to Ireland requires a plan for U.S. pickup, international transportation, shipment documentation and destination delivery. Averitt coordinates international freight forwarding for U.S.-to-Ireland exports, with full container load (FCL), less than container load (LCL) and air freight options.

Our team can connect U.S. inland transportation with your departure port or airport, then work with international partners to coordinate customs paperwork and clearance and onward delivery in Ireland. Our licensed customs brokerage team works with overseas customs partners to navigate requirements on both sides. We plan around your consignee’s receiving requirements and help align transportation and documentation before your export shipment departs.

Averitt can also arrange shipments to Ireland from countries other than the U.S. Contact our International team to discuss your trade lane and cargo requirements.

Traders importing or exporting goods into or out of the EU need an Economic Operators Registration and Identification (EORI) number.
