The Customs and Fiscal Warehouse of Algeciras is made up of facilities closed on the perimeter and isolated from the rest of the port environment. It is made up of four warehouses with a covered area of approximately 8,400 m2 and an adjacent plot whose uncovered area is approximately 3,200 m2, equipped with ten docks for loading and unloading vehicles. These facilities make up an exempt customs area that allows you to have both community and non-community goods, to which neither the tariffs nor the taxation of the community country is applied. This allows goods from third countries to be deposited without applying tariffs or community trade policy and also to incorporate national and community merchandise without the corresponding taxation, assimilating it to an export.
