Border Force is a law enforcement command within the Home Office. Border Force secures the border and promotes national prosperity by facilitating the legitimate movement of individuals and goods.

Ports requiring this service are:~ Teesport, Newcastle, Southampton, Avonmouth, Poole, Purfleet, Thamesport, Portsmouth, Tilbury, London Gateway, Rosyth, Grangemouth, Coatbridge, Greenock Ocean, Stranraer, Cairnryan, Liverpool, Holyhead, Felixstowe, South, South West & South Wales, Poole, Pembroke, Cardiff, Swansea, Fishguard, Plymouth, Avonmouth, Bristol Royal Portbury, Newhaven, Harwich, and Immingham.
