Do you supply BS and ISO metric fasteners to the UK?

Yes. We supply to BS 3692 (metric hex bolts), BS 4190 (general purpose), BS EN ISO 4014/4017 (hex bolts), ISO 4032/4033 (nuts), and BS 4320 (washers). All property classes are available: 4.6, 5.8, 8.8, 10.9, and 12.9. Stainless A2-70 and A4-80 to BS EN ISO 3506 are also available. Property class markings and Mill Test Certificates are provided as standard with every shipment.

What documentation do you provide for UK customs and quality requirements?

Every UK shipment includes: Mill Test Certificate (MTC) per EN 10204, dimensional inspection report, Certificate of Origin (UK GSP Form A or standard CoO from Indian Chamber of Commerce), commercial invoice with UK commodity code (e.g. 7318150000 for bolts), and packing list. Where applicable, EUR.1 or REX preference certificates are provided for UK-India trade preference. All documents are reviewed before shipment to prevent customs delays.

How do you handle post-Brexit export documentation for UK shipments?

Post-Brexit, we handle UK export compliance including declaring the UK commodity code on the commercial invoice, issuing a Certificate of Origin via the Indian Chamber of Commerce, and providing EUR.1 or REX preference certificates where UK-India trade preferences apply. UKCA product marking is the importer's responsibility under UK regulations — we supply to the dimensional and mechanical standards specified; buyers handle any UKCA conformity declarations.

What are the transit times and port options for UK shipments?

Sea transit from Indian ports (Chennai, Tuticorin, or Mumbai) to major UK container ports: Felixstowe (approximately 22-28 days, UK's largest container port), Southampton (22-28 days), and London Gateway (22-28 days, DP World-operated, close to London distribution hubs). Liverpool and Tilbury are alternative options for northern England. Air freight is available for urgent or sample orders. We quote CIF to any UK port on request.
