CUSTOMS AND DOCUMENTATION
Information on customs and documentation for the transport of artworks
Customs procedures for artworks
The customs procedures for artworks require technical expertise and a thorough knowledge of Italian and international regulations. Overdriveart assists museums, galleries, and cultural institutions in preparing all the necessary documents for the transit of artworks, preventing delays or customs holds.
Our experts handle the completion of forms, export/import permits, and relations with authorities such as Superintendencies and customs. Our art customs assistance also includes organizing ATA carnets and customs bonds for temporary shipments. Whether it's an exhibition abroad or a national transfer, we provide art transport documents compliant with legal and logistical requirements.
Art transport documents: flawless management
With the Art Logistics Service provided by OVERDRIVEART, you won’t have to worry about a thing. Thanks to our technical assistance, we can handle your customs procedures, providing support for completing the necessary documentation for transporting your artworks both nationally and internationally.
We offer our availability to manage temporary and permanent exports and imports, providing all necessary shipping and import certificates as well as customs transit documents.
Assistance with customs procedures and documentation
Additionally, we prepare the Fine Arts documents, required for the export of artworks from Italy.
Upon request, we compile the Status Report for the artworks: this document highlights any issues with the transported pieces and includes photographs of the objects, allowing us to certify the condition of the artworks at the time of transport.
If you require a Condition Report, we collaborate with restorers who can provide you with a professional technical analysis of your artworks.
