Our licensed customs brokers ensure that all required regulations for clearing our clients’ goods at customs are met. We relieve our clients of the uncertainty of the customs clearance process, with all its paperwork and complexity, and handle each case personally. In addition, we educate our clients on the details of the process and maintain permanent communication with them, which gives them peace of mind and reassures them that the procedure is made with all the attention and care that they deserve, whether they are individuals who clear cargo for the first time or companies that have a long trajectory importing all types of merchandise.

WHAT TO EXPECT

The Customs clearance process may seem daunting (especially for new importers), but with the right partner, it is quite simple. Your customs broker will:

1. File ISF 24-48 hours prior to vessel departure (for ocean shipments)
2. Gather proper documentation for customs clearance services
3. Classify your goods to determine duty rates
4. Make a declaration to Customs of the items entering for the commerce of the U.S.
5. Present documentation for customs review
6. Coordinate the exams that customs and any participating government agency (PGA) may want to conduct
7. Obtain final release from customs and the PGA
8. Arrange final delivery from port to your facility

Who needs a customs broker?

Importers and exporters who move commercial goods through U.S. ports may benefit from working with a licensed customs broker. A customs broker helps ensure that shipments comply with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) requirements, prepares the necessary documentation, and facilitates the customs clearance process. Whether you are importing regularly or handling a single shipment, a customs broker can help reduce delays and avoid costly compliance issues.

Why is my shipment being held by customs?

A shipment may be held by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for several reasons, including missing or incorrect documentation, issues with tariff classification, questions about the declared value or country of origin, unpaid duties and taxes, or the need for additional inspections or government agency approvals. A customs broker can help identify the reason for the hold, communicate with the relevant authorities, and guide you through the steps needed to release your shipment.

What information does a customs broker need?

A customs broker typically needs information such as the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading or airway bill, product descriptions, quantities, values, country of origin, and importer information. Depending on the type of goods, additional documents, permits, or certifications may be required. Providing complete and accurate information helps your customs broker classify the goods correctly, calculate applicable duties and taxes, and facilitate a smoother customs clearance process.
