Free customs clearance on air freight through London Heathrow — pre-flight document audit, CDS declarations and same-day release. No brokerage fee.
Gxpresss offers free customs clearance on air freight cleared at London Heathrow — you pay only HMRC duty and VAT, with no brokerage or clearance fee.
Heathrow is the UK's largest air cargo hub, handling around 1.5 million tonnes per year of belly-hold and freighter cargo, from high-value electronics and pharmaceuticals to luxury goods and temperature-sensitive shipments.
Our team pre-audits documentation in flight and submits CDS declarations before wheels touch down, so your cargo clears without delay..
Heathrow is the UK's most connected airport and handles the most complex, highest-value air cargo in the country. From life sciences and electronics to luxury goods and perishables, the diversity of cargo types requires a customs agent with genuine sector expertise — not just a processing clerk. Gxpresss reviews your supplier's documents while goods are still in transit, files the CDS declaration before landing, and manages HMRC and Border Force interactions on your behalf to ensure zero-delay clearance. And unlike agents who charge per entry, Gxpresss clears your Heathrow air freight with no customs clearance fee — a genuine cost saving on every shipment, while you pay only the HMRC duty and VAT that is due.

Gxpresss can clear cargo arriving on any airline operating at Heathrow, whether travelling as belly-hold freight or on dedicated freighter services.
Heathrow is London's air cargo gateway — most air freight destined for Central London and the South East arrives through LHR rather than the smaller regional airports, because it carries the widest range of scheduled belly-hold routes and freighter services into the capital. If your business or your customer is based in or around London, clearing through Heathrow keeps the final road leg short: our team delivers same-day or next-day across Greater London once your cargo is released, rather than trucking it down from an airport further north.
End-to-end timing depends on the flight schedule and whether HMRC selects a shipment for Red Channel examination, but for a fully-documented consignment with pre-lodged CDS paperwork, clearance is typically confirmed within hours of the aircraft landing — often before the cargo has even left the terminal shed. Combined with our free clearance model (you pay only the HMRC duty and VAT due, never a per-entry brokerage fee), that makes Heathrow the fastest and most cost-effective route for London-bound air freight.
