Permits for import of specific samples from Non-EU countries
For some types of sample the customs require an import permit. ALS Scandinavia in Luleå has three import permits; one for sediments and soils, another one for animal by-products for research/diagnostic purposes and a third for pharmaceuticals. Our recommendation is to add those permits for those kind of samples with the shipment and outside the parcel.
