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

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

Upper Silesia and Katowice are Poland's steel and metallurgy centre (ArcelorMittal Dąbrowa Górnicza, Thyssenkrupp Stalprodukt Bochnia). Exporting steel to the UK falls under HS codes 7208–7228 (flat steel products) and 7301–7320 (steel articles). Note: the UK has its own anti-dumping measures on steel from certain countries — Poland, as an EU member state, is generally covered by the Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA) at 0% duty, but UK steel safeguard quotas may apply.

Certificates: a Mill Test Certificate (MTC) is typically required by the UK buyer. CBAM: the UK is developing its own Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (separate from the EU CBAM). Route Katowice–Dover: approximately 1,500 km via Ostrava or Wrocław.
