Customs Brokerage

Trust and confidence in the expertise offered by the broker form the foundation of this relationship. The importer depends upon the broker not only to process the necessary documentation, but also to advise them of potential liability issues, changes in customs policy, and any problems that may arise that will delay shipment delivery.
