Everything from customs clearance to the exhibition floor

You ship your products to our warehouse — DAP (Delivered At Place). From that point on, we handle it. You don't need to interact with Norwegian customs, Mattilsynet, or any other authority.

🛃

Customs clearance

TAD acts as your Importer of Record. We handle HS classification and customs declaration via TVINN (Norway's customs system). Duties and VAT paid on your behalf and invoiced to the event organiser.

📋

Document handling

Send us the required documentation electronically before shipment. TAD handles verification and prepares the customs declaration.

🏭

Receipt & storage

Goods received at TAD's warehouse and stored until the event. Climate-controlled facilities available for products requiring temperature management.

🏷️

Regulatory compliance

We handle the regulatory requirements for your products to enter the Norwegian market — including Mattilsynet notification and EPR registration.

🚛

Delivery to venue

We transport your goods from our warehouse to your stand at UMAMI Arena. Coordinated with the event organiser's schedule — goods arrive ready the day before the event opens.

🔄

Temporary import (equipment)

Equipment and display items that return to your home country after the show can be handled as temporary import — no customs duties or VAT.

How it works

A smooth UMAMI import follows this sequence. Documentation must be with TAD before goods leave your facility — delays in paperwork cause delays at customs.

Step 1

Contact TAD and confirm your product list

Send us your product list, volume, and country of origin. We confirm what we need and guide you through the next steps.

Step 2

Submit documentation to TAD

Send all required documents electronically before goods leave your facility. TAD reviews and prepares the customs declaration.

Step 3

Goods received at TAD warehouse

Ship DAP to our warehouse. TAD takes responsibility from point of receipt.

Step 4

Customs clearance completed

TAD handles the full customs declaration. Duties and VAT are settled on your behalf.

Step 5

Goods delivered to your stand

TAD delivers cleared goods directly to your stand at UMAMI Arena.

Thinking beyond UMAMI Arena?

For many international brands, UMAMI Arena is the first conversation with the Norwegian market. TAD is positioned to take you further.

● Distribution

From stand to store shelf

TAD represents international brands in the Norwegian grocery and foodservice market. If you receive buyer interest at UMAMI Arena, we are structured to move quickly — from first meeting to commercial model in weeks, not months.

● Market entry

A full-service entry partner

We handle the entire Norwegian commercial chain: import, distribution, Key Account Management, grocery chain listings, and logistics — whether for a test launch or a full market entry. Talk to us at the show or before.
