FRANKFURT (Reuters) - German logistics group DB Schenker said it would stop accepting Britain-bound consignments for the time being after the Brexit trade deal between the European Union and Britain left customers confused over customs requirements.
The haulier, a subsidiary of Germany’s state-owned railway group Deutsche Bahn, said on Wednesday it needs to clear a backlog of missing or wrongly filled-in customs forms before it can accept any new business because only about one in ten UK-bound shipments are fully documented.
DB Schenker is the leader in European land transport serving auto makers, drugmakers and retailers, among other industries, according to its website.
