Subject: Re: Sending engine from France to UK for rebuild; customs issues?
Laurence, I investigated exactly the same process in order to send a gearbox to the EU for repair and return with a specialist. I found it impossible to discover any way to do this. The only regulations seem to relate to businesses not private owners. I came to the conclusion that the only way was for the repairing company to arrange this for you or for you to use a specialist carrier who completes all the necessary paperwork. However I never found a specialist carrier willing to do this . Therefore I gave up and the gearbox is still with me ! I think it is possible that in a year or two things will be easier or clearer but not now !
