Customs

What US & Canada customs expects

ISF & CBP

Every ocean shipment to the USA requires an ISF (10+2) filing lodged 24 hours before vessel departure. We prepare and submit this under our importer bond β€” you don’t need a US entity or customs broker license. About 3–5% of ocean shipments are selected for CBP examination at the port; we handle the exam, storage fees, and re-delivery on your behalf at cost.

Duty & HTS code

Your products need a correct HTSUS classification to determine the duty rate. We classify your goods against CBP binding rulings and lock the duty rate before booking β€” no surprises on arrival. Electronics need FCC certification, food and cosmetics need FDA prior notice, and all wood packaging must be ISPM-15 heat-treated. We flag regulated items before pickup.

🚫 Prohibited

⚠️ Restricted β€” we handle
