Norwich-KLM-SA post brexit with rifle.

[shooter]

Dear all,

I have flown to SA with rifle in the past.
However this was from heathrow, direct flight, pre covid.

I have since moved to norfolk and norwich international have good connectivity to SA via KLM.

Flying via norwich saves me £££ and also time.

I wish to ask if someone has flown via this airport recently via klm to SA. (post brexit)

Specific questions:

KLM state that (For non EU countries) i need to write to belastingdienst.nl for paperwork needed (but dont give a direct email).

The flight from Norwich is at 0600. Do i need to get there at 0100 ? or 0300? even if i do, will there be anyone available there at that time to do the paperwork ?

If anyone has done this route, please let me know

thanks.

I would take the advice of the airlines and the airport. And give yourself a little bit more.

Travel to or through Netherlands with Firearm

I have recently asked the Dutch Customs what I would need to visit for couple of days on shooting trip and also transit through Schiphol with a firearm. They replied as follows:
