North Weald Inland Border Facility Closure
1 Sept 2022
The North Weald IBF site will be closing to all customer from midnight on the 11th September 2022. The site was originally introduced to support new customs processes when the UK left the EU. As Sevington and Holyhead sites are now open and fully operational, we have seen a significant reduction in usage of this site. Services can continue to be accessed via the rest of our IBF network including Holyhead (outbound & inbound), Warrington (outbound & inbound), Sevington (outbound & inbound), Ebbsfleet (outbound & inbound), Dover Western Docks (inbound) or Stop 24 (inbound)
