Speed Logistics runs transport between Germany and Kosovo as a complete service: nationwide pickup, direct run via Hungary and Serbia or alternatively via North Macedonia, full customs clearance and delivery in Pristina, Prizren or Mitrovica. For the roughly 1,700 kilometres we calculate 3 to 4 working days.
Kosovo is a non-EU country – the quality of the customs papers decides the transit time. We create T1 dispatch documents, commercial invoice and preferential proofs in clearance-proof quality and quote you a fixed price in advance, usually within a few hours of the enquiry.

Route and process: across the Balkans to Pristina
The main leg runs via Austria and Hungary to Serbia and across the Merdare border crossing into Kosovo; depending on the destination and border situation, we alternatively dispatch via North Macedonia. The process: 1) enquiry with key data, 2) fixed-price quote within a few hours, 3) pickup and direct run with prepared transit papers, 4) import clearance and delivery with proof of delivery. Thanks to pre-notified documents, our vehicles pass the Balkan borders without unnecessary idle times.
Customs clearance Kosovo: T1, EUR.1 and import clearance
We handle the complete customs chain from EXW to DDP: export declaration in Germany, the T1 dispatch procedure for transit through Serbia or North Macedonia and import clearance in Kosovo via established partners. Thanks to the Stabilisation and Association Agreement between the EU and Kosovo, goods of EU origin are largely duty-privileged with a EUR.1 preferential proof – we check the preferential eligibility of your goods and create the proofs at the same time.
Typical goods on the Kosovo route
In demand are above all machinery and building materials for construction and infrastructure projects, equipment for mining, and consumer and capital goods for trade and manufacturing. We also dispatch returns and procurement transport from Kosovo to Germany – including export clearance on the Kosovan side and on-schedule delivery within Germany.
Vehicles and equipment for Balkan traffic
From the express sprinter, through 7.5 and 12-tonne trucks, to the articulated truck with 13.6 loading metres, we dispatch the right vehicle – as a curtainsider, box body or reefer with documented temperature control. Unloading points without a ramp we serve with a tail lift, and construction sites on request with a truck-mounted forklift. Load securing is carried out to regulation and checked before every border passage.
Return loads and regular Kosovo traffic
We run the route in both directions: exports from Kosovo to Germany – for example products of the manufacturing industry – we handle including export on the Kosovan side and EU import clearance. Companies with ongoing demand benefit from fixed departure days, bundled part shipments in Balkan consolidated traffic and established customs processes at the crossings. A fixed point of contact coordinates driver, customs partner and consignee – short-notice enquiries we answer around the clock. That makes even smaller, regular shipments economically plannable.
