SPEED THROUGH CUSTOMS

The beauty and power of horses and cars will always bind them together as unrivaled sources of excitement. At this time of the year, contenders in the motorsports and equestrian sectors request our assistance with the temporary export of race cars, horses, and equipment to compete in global events.

Across all sectors, our customers leverage ATA Carnets to clear merchandise, goods, and equipment through foreign customs easier and save on import-duties and -taxes on those temporary exports. Boomerang carnets® UK, with our partners, The Liverpool Chamber of Commerce (LCC), deliver the powerful benefits of ATA Carnets across all regions of the United Kingdom.

ATA Carnets have long been used for the temporary export of horses, but this season has seen a surge in horse carnets. Horses are temporarily exported for numerous reasons including international dressage, jumping, and cross-country competitions, as well as test/trials, sporting events, and riding excursions or holidays. ATA Carnets are not only used for the horses but also for the expensive equipment needed for the sport. We’ve even had a prominent politician’s wife use a carnet for her favourite horse headed to the EU.

Luxury car companies, Aston Martin, Gordon Murray, Lamborghini, Lotus, McLaren, and TF Sport also use ATA Carnets to clear customs, save money, expand into new markets, and grow their businesses. One of our longstanding ATA Carnet customers, Dr. Ernest Nagamatsu, is a renowned vintage race car driver and owner of Old Yeller II, a legendary racing car built in 1959. Old Yeller II has raced in England at the Goodwood

Festival of Speed and Revival Meeting Races, Sussex Trophy Race, as well as motorsport competitions in New Zealand and Australia. Vehicles of all types are temporarily exported for races, rallies, expos, shows and parades all over the world.

Boomerang operates in the U.K. and U.S. This unique advantage, known as the Boomerang Benefit, is access to ATA Carnets through one company saving time and increasing efficiency.
