Exporting clothing & textiles from Łódź to the UK — customs clearance

Updated: 2026-04-20 · Easy Clearance — UK customs broker

This information is general and does not constitute legal or tax advice. For individual cases, please speak to a consultant.

Łódź is Poland's historic textile capital. Clothing and textile exporters based in the region — including suppliers to LPP/Reserved and other garment manufacturers exporting to the UK — fall primarily under HS Chapters 61–62–63: knitted apparel, woven apparel, and other made-up textile articles.

TCA rules of origin for clothing: the double transformation rule applies — fabric must be woven in the EU or UK from EU/UK yarn. Additional compliance requirements include: REACH regulations for dyes and chemical finishes, fibre composition labels in English (UK Textile Products Regulations), and UKCA marking — generally not required for standard clothing, but mandatory for personal protective equipment (PPE).

Typical route from Łódź to Dover: approximately 1,700 km via the A2/Berlin corridor. The Łódź Special Economic Zone (ŁSSE) is a key manufacturing hub in the region. Easy Clearance services for this trade lane include export clearance for clothing from Łódź, EUR.1 movement certificates and statements on origin, and ENS (Safety & Security GB) filings.
