Customs Procedures: A Strategic and High-Precision Step Before Every Grand Prix

Before considering the transport aspect of the operation, the logistics process always begins with a fundamental phase: preparing customs documents.

At CEVA Logistics, this step marks the true start of a cross-border logistics mission. Essential and nearly systematic, it ensures the smooth flow of international operations—and prevents unnecessary and harmful delays.

Silverstone 2025: Precision in Documentation as the Starting Point

The 2025 Silverstone Grand Prix is a perfect example of this process. Starting in Italy, where Kit 3 is meticulously configured: spare parts, garage modules, and paddock equipment. But before a single truck is loaded, our teams focus on a top priority: preparing and verifying the customs paperwork.

Every detail is checked with precision and expertise by CEVA’s team of experienced professionals: customs codes, declarations, certificates of origin, compliance documents, and more. All items are pre-approved in close coordination with the relevant authorities. In international logistics, anticipation is key—a single issue and cause major delays down the line.

CEVA’s Expertise Ensures Seamless, Optimized Logistics

This level of rigor is part of CEVA’s DNA. CEVA teams work closely with Scuderia Ferrari HP to guarantee orchestrated synchronization for every mission. Real-time tracking, multiple validations, secure exchanges—it's a well-oiled machine, refined and repeated for every event.

To bring this reality to life, CEVA developed a simulation inspired by a real-world scenario. Drivers Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton are faced with a new customs classification challenge ahead of Miami. Their quest is to identify the required items from the list, complete the relevant information, and submit the documents to customs authorities within the tight deadline. A race against the clock that mirrors the everyday demands of our logistics teams.
