Basel Shipment Triage
Basel Shipment Triage
Your shipment file, checked against every required Basel element -- notification form, movement document, annexes, consent letters -- with a written checklist of what's missing or incomplete sent back to you, before customs or the competent authority sees it.
What you get
- ✓Item-by-item gap checklist -- every missing or incomplete element flagged against Basel requirements
- ✓Notification form checked block-by-block (vCOP8 format)
- ✓Movement document completeness check
- ✓Annex package checklist -- required attachments verified present
- ✓Plain-language note on what each flagged gap requires to close
This is a document-completeness checklist against Basel Convention requirements, not legal advice or a certification that your shipment will be approved. The competent authority responsible for your shipment makes that determination.
Who reviews your file
Every triage is reviewed personally by Richard David, founder of DexMetal LLC, based in Trinidad & Tobago.
Richard has 20+ years of hands-on Caribbean hazardous waste operations, including managing full Basel notification chains from Caribbean islands to destination smelters -- the same notification forms, movement documents, and annex packages this checklist is built against.
Who this is for
Operators who have assembled a notification file themselves and want it checked against the full requirement list before submission. Also useful before repeat shipments to a new destination, or after a prior rejection by a competent authority.
What a gap costs you
A single missing annex can freeze a shipment at the border for weeks. A wrong block on the notification form triggers a formal rejection from the competent authority -- requiring a full re-submission and a new consent cycle. Storage fees, demurrage, and re-routing costs accumulate fast.
A $149 checklist pass is a fraction of what one rejection costs in practice.
