Six stages, one manifest: how we clear your cargo

Customs Clearance Process

From document intake to your loading dock

Every shipment we handle follows the same disciplined sequence โ€” so nothing is missed, and nothing waits longer than it has to.

1

Receive Documents

Bills of lading, invoices and permits collected from the shipper.

2

Customs Review

Declarations checked against tariff codes and regulatory requirements.

3

Duty Assessment

Duties, VAT and levies calculated and confirmed with the client.

4

Clearance Processing

Entry lodged electronically with the customs authority for approval.

5

Cargo Release

Release order issued and cargo collected from port or terminal.

6

Delivery

Final-mile transport to your warehouse, site or store.

Stage Detail

What happens at each stage

We collect the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading or airway bill, and any permits or licences your goods require before the file moves to review.

Our brokers verify tariff classification, origin, and valuation, resolving discrepancies before the declaration is lodged โ€” the step that prevents most clearance delays.

We calculate applicable duty, VAT and any excise or levies, and confirm the total landed cost with you before submission.

The entry is lodged with the customs authority and monitored through to approval, with any queries handled directly by our brokers.

Once released, we coordinate collection from the port, airport or terminal, including any physical inspection requirements.

Cleared cargo is transported to your warehouse, site, or store, with delivery confirmation shared directly with your team.
