Call Boomerang Carnets, Your Carnet Specialists

Whether you’re expanding into new markets, launching a venture abroad, or showcasing your goods at international trade shows, an ATA Carnet is a powerful tool that can streamline your operations and open doors to global growth.

The ATA Carnet simplifies the temporary importation process, letting you focus on what matters—growing your business, not navigating red tape.
 

We Make the Process Simple

At boomerang carnets®, we simplify the temporary import process by providing the ATA Carnet, a customs document for the temporary import of goods that allows cross-border movement of those goods import-duty and -tax free for up to a year.  We also offer valuable destination-specific resources to help make your trip seamless.  With nearly forty years in the ATA Carnet business in the U.S. and over a decade in the U.K., we know what you will need to make travel hassle-free with up-to-date information and top-rated customer service support.  For the most efficient and cost-effective ATA Carnet experience, come directly to the source—boomerang carnets. 
 

Carnet Countries—and New Possibilities & Savings

Considering temporary exports to Canada, India, the E.U., or beyond? 

Our Carnet Countries page is one of the most frequently visited sections of our website.  It provides comprehensive up-to-date information on where ATA Carnets are accepted and linked with pertinent details where applicable, making it a valuable resource for businesses exploring global opportunities.

When new countries join the ATA Carnet system, we update the page with everything you need to know.  Recent additions include Vietnam in 2022, and Peru, Saudi Arabia, and the Philippines in 2024. These expansions strengthen the global ATA Carnet network, making it easier for companies to access new markets and grow internationally. 

In 2024, ATA Carnets issued by boomerang carnets for use in Peru, Saudi Arabia, and the Philippines saw the Film & TV Production, Robotics, Media-Broadcast, and Engineering industries dominating the top of the list representing over $6.76 Million in goods.  These industries saved an approximate total of $2.48 Million in import duties and taxes by using ATA Carnets—for one border crossing alone.

Whether you're looking for your next export destination or simply want to stay informed, our Carnet Countries page is the perfect place to start.  
 

Advisories and Updates

Our Advisories keep you up to date with critical information about ATA Carnet countries and travel alerts that could affect your plans.  Whether you're using a Carnet or just exploring your options, it's a valuable resource before any trip. 
 

Can You Use a Carnet in a Non-Carnet Country? 

Yes, you can.  While the ATA Carnet system only guarantees acceptance in participating countries, there are cases where ATA Carnets are accepted in non-member countries.

If you are taking your goods, equipment, or services into a non-carnet country, getting a carnet is still to your advantage.  The gravitas of this official document is a benefit at customs in non-carnet countries, since it will have a clear detailed list of what is being brought into that country.  It supports your purpose, and you are more likely to clear customs without hassle or suffer the withholding of any items that would impede or delay your business in that country. 

In both the U.S. and U.K., the ATA Carnet may be used as a Certificate of Registration for any goods departing and returning to the country of origin, regardless of whether the carnet will be used in a carnet or non-carnet country.  This saves you time and extra paperwork required by customs. 
 

Have a Plan

Attempting to enter a non-carnet Country without proper documentation can, in some cases, result in delays or denied entry for your goods. If you're traveling with a carnet to a non-carnet Country, be prepared with a contingency plan in case it’s not accepted for import.  We recommend consulting one of our Carnet Specialists to avoid surprises and ensure compliance with local regulations BEFORE you depart.
