Export to Åland
Customs declaration at export to Åland
When a product is exported to Åland, the exporting company must submit a customs declaration for export to the Finnish Customs. Companies that do not have approval to report the export via an approved location must visit an export customs office (customs clearance office) and handle the export formalities there. This also affects the type of customs declaration for export to be used:
- Standard customs declaration where the export is started from an export customs office, UNU.
- Standard customs declaration with simultaneous notification of the goods, UGE.
The export accompanying document must then be presented to the customs office of exit. The customs clearance offices closest to the ports that have traffic with Åland are Stockholm and Arlanda.
When it comes to sending your awesome goods out into the world, we at Tullify want to make it as seamless as possible. That's why our standard of making UGEs, as we like to call them, is perfect for those of you who want to keep it quick and easy.

You send off the customs declaration at the same time as you release your goods for adventure. It saves time, energy and lets you focus on what really matters – your amazing products.

Swedish exports to Åland
For companies exporting goods to Åland, it is crucial to submit a correct export declaration to the Swedish Customs. Without an approval to report the export from an approved location, companies must handle export formalities directly at an export customs office, such as Stockholm or Arlanda, depending on the port of departure of the goods. There are two main types of customs declarations: Standard customs declaration UNU for exports that start at an export customs office and UGE for simultaneous reporting, which significantly streamlines the process.

This approach reduces waiting times and complexity, so companies can get their products to market faster. UGE not only facilitates the export process, but also ensures that companies can focus where it belongs: on their innovative products.
