Questions buyers in the Netherlands ask

How long does delivery from Tallinn to the Netherlands take?

Do deliveries to the Netherlands need customs clearance?

No. Estonia is in the EU single market, so goods from First In Service move to the Netherlands without customs clearance.

Can First In Service take overflow work?

Yes. Fabrication, machining and assembly run on one site, so First In Service can act as a second source or take overflow work from a full workshop. Lead times start from 6 weeks; capacity and the exact lead time are confirmed in the firm quote.

Do you work under NDA?
