Please note that Free Zones will not be available within the UK with effect from July 2012.

If you wish to obtain benefits similar to those under the Free Zone arrangements you are advised to consider customs warehousing arrangements.

Free Zones are supervised by the Free-Zone manager. All Free Zones will have a supervising office within HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC). They will be able to help you with general queries on using Free Zones and specific questions about the particular Free Zone under their supervision.

If you require any further assistance you can contact the HMRC Excise & Customs Helpline on Tel 0845 010 9000.

If you have a complaint or suggestion, you should try to resolve it with the local Customs office first. If the issue is not resolved to your satisfaction, you can ask the independent Adjudicator to look into it. You can call the Adjudicator's Office Enquiry Line on Tel 0300 057 1111.
