Companies must have Customs and Quarantine Accreditations to Customs clear goods over borders. Customs brokers represent and importer or exporter. An accredited broker must be authorized to act on behalf of the company or personal shipping the goods.
The broker completes and lodges the appropriate paperwork on behalf of consignee's, helping to ensure that the goods being imported or exported comply with all applicable laws and regulations.
They provide drafts and guidanceto client where restrictions apply. We ensure duties and taxes as well as fees on behalf of the importer and exporter are declared and paid and that all paperwork required to obtain customs clearance and release is completed, lodged, filed and declared through the relevant government department. Accordingly we must have an understanding of the many government regulations and laws. Importantly understanding customs tariffs, applying the correct classifications to the goods, applying duties and applicable taxes.
With all shipping you have origin and port of discharge costs to pay and these can vary substantially at either end. This is where we as an independent company ensure the best outcome is achieved for you.
