- Sole proprietors and freelancers
- Occasional importers
- Online retailers with third-country goods
- Freight forwarders and customs agents
Application Process
The EORI number is applied for at the customs authority:

💡 Apply for the EORI number BEFORE your first import – no customs declaration can be made without it.
