• groupage must take place under a single transport contract for the goods;
• full container loads cannot be regrouped;
• duty suspended goods must be loaded last into the container;
• the goods must not be interfered with;
• the container must be produced for examination at shipment; and
• full details of pre and post groupage transport must be recorded on the accompanying documents.
• Any losses identified at groupage must be notified to HMRC
