GREATER EFFICIENCY IN THE CONNECTION WITH BEST TERMINAL

From 1 December 2020, goods can be transferred between Temporary Deposit Warehouses (TDAs) in a more agile, efficient and simplified manner through notifications known as G5, in which BEST terminal plays an important role.

The implementation of this new way of moving goods has been a complete success and Hutchison Ports BEST terminal in the Port of Barcelona has experienced a fluid process at the truck gates and in railway activities.

BEST terminal is equipped to carry out these transfer notifications and this service is available to users, as well as free, non-binding advice to clarify any aspects as necessary, via e-mail to aduana@best.com.es

The issuing of G5 notifications has numerous and important advantages over traditional transit management.
