Customs, food & veterinary border control
The Port of Kalundborg is approved as a border control point for the import of food and products of both animal and non-animal origin.
The operation of border control is carried out in accordance with EU legal rules on border control posts and national provisions, including Executive Order No. 1810 of 3 December 2020 on border control posts, inspection centres and control points.
Containers requiring inspection are released to the importer only after the inspection is completed.
