Customs Clearing

A Customs Broker, sometimes call a Customs Agent, is a professional, licensed to represent importers and exporters to the Customs Authority in all matters related to international shipping.

The Customs Broker, officially, facilitates all the complicated processes involved in importing and exporting. He or she acts as a responsible trustee for the importer or exporter with Customs. The Broker prepares all the paperwork and insures it will be acceptable to Customs.

An experienced Customs Broker can even influence companies’ strategic financial decisions and assist in developing a successful import or export business.

Your Customs Broker can oftentimes help with international shipping, overland freight, marine insurance and certainly in categorizing the goods you are importing or exporting.

Customs brokerage requires a high level or professionalism in order to do the job well. Most countries have a very intense and relatively long training program. Obtaining a license for Customs Brokerage” is a sign or seriousness and reflects on the quality of the company.
