Overview

About Ashford Port Health

Ashford Borough Council provides a Port Health Service at the Sevington Inland Border Facility (IBF), we were designated in April 2024. Sevington is one of the biggest facilities in the UK.

As a result of EU Transition, the council became responsible for checks on imports of products of animal origin (POAO), high-risk food not of animal origin (HRFNAO) and animal by-products (animal products not for human consumption) imported from the EU that transit into the UK via Eurotunnel and the Port of Dover.

The site operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.
