Ghana customs — the CTN, handled
Ghanaian imports require a CTN (Cargo Tracking Note, also known as ASHI/UCR) raised before the vessel sails, and clear through the ICUMS system on arrival. As an HMRC Customs Authorised, EORI-registered forwarder we raise the CTN and prepare the documentation so your cargo from Ely clears cleanly and isn't held.

We collect in Ely, consolidate at Dagenham, ship, and deliver to the recipient's door anywhere in Ghana — not just to the port. Everything is quoted all-in in GBP, with no surprise charges billed to your family in Accra, Kumasi or wherever they are.
