Friday, January 17, 2025

Call Boomerang Carnets, Your Carnet Specialists

Boomerang carnets® is the only provider offering ATA Carnets in both the United States and the United Kingdom—a unique dual-country capability that sets us apart.  This exclusive capability delivers unparalleled convenience, cost-effectiveness, and efficiency for temporary export solutions—a cornerstone of the Boomerang Benefit.

Our dual-country advantage simplifies the process, saving businesses time, reducing costs, and eliminating the extra paperwork often required when dealing with separate ATA Carnet providers.  For companies operating in both the U.S. and U.K., the Boomerang Benefit ensures seamless carnet services across both countries, streamlining cross-border movement of temporary exports.

In this ongoing series, we’ll explore advantages of the Boomerang Benefit and showcase how we’re amplifying its reach by fostering strong partnerships with industry associations.  Our aim is to broaden access to ATA Carnets, encourage participation in industry events, and connect businesses with practical import/export solutions to simplify and grow their global trade.
 

Partnerships in Action

Recently, boomerang carnets UK premiered a short film on the benefits of ATA Carnets produced with ITN Business for the program Transforming Logistics: Precision and Purpose at The British International Freight Association (BIFA) Business Leaders Forum.  The program features industry insights and editorial segments, including our partner film on the advantages of ATA Carnets and their role in global trade.  We have been a proud member of BIFA since 2015.

The ITN program features three organizations with insightful thought leader interviews.  Each share a strong focus on logistics and trade and are dedicated to their role in contributing to advancing the vitality of the UK economy and global commerce.  In our last post, we highlighted BIFA and in this post we spotlight the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT).
 

Spotlight on CILT

The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT) is a professional chartered body serving logistics, transport, and supply chain professionals.  Established in 1919, CILT fosters professional development, certification, and multi-sector engagement through specialized forums.  Its mission supports logistics, freight movement, transport planning, mobility, and sustainability.

About Our Film

We partnered with Bespoke Handling, a leader in automotive and motorsport logistics, and valued, longstanding client.  They generously provided their Pease Pottage headquarters in the UK as the filming location, featuring a backdrop of supercars.

Fabian Daffern, Director, shared his experience on camera:

A week or so ago, we had an emergency in America.  There were some goods that were needed and we got the call at 7 o’clock in the evening—on a Friday evening.  We were able to arrange the carnet and get the goods shipped out that evening and the goods arrived in Los Angeles and were delivered on a Monday morning that same weekend.  If it hadn’t been for our relationship with Boomerang, we wouldn’t have been able to have done that.”
 

It Matters Where You Get Your Carnet

The ATA Carnet is an internationally accepted customs document for temporarily exported merchandise or goods.  It allows cross border movement of those goods import-duty and -tax free into 90+ carnet countries and territories for up to 12 months.  The ATA Carnet is known as the Merchandise Passport for boomerang freight®.  At the end of the 12 months, all the items listed on the carnet return to the country of origin, thus the term boomerang freight
