Complete documentation
Most delays happen when documents are wrong or incomplete. Before we file, we check the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading or airway bill, and any certificates of origin, licences, permits or authorisations that apply. Discrepancies surface while there is still time to fix them.
Customs-related formalities
We also handle the formalities around the filing: classification and valuation declarations, claims for applicable exemptions and benefits, coordination with other regulatory agencies where the cargo requires it, and the paperwork for re-imports, temporary imports and SEZ movements.

Frequently asked questions
Typically you need a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading or airway bill, and the importer’s IEC. Depending on the goods, you may also need a certificate of origin, insurance details, product literature, and licences or permissions from other regulators. We send a document checklist specific to your shipment.
It depends on how complete your documents are, whether customs selects the shipment for assessment or examination, and whether other regulators need to give clearance. Filing early with accurate documents is the most effective way to cut clearance time, and it is central to our process.
A customs broker is licensed by customs to act for importers and exporters. A broker prepares and files customs declarations, responds to queries, coordinates duty payment and examination, and obtains release of the goods.
Yes. We can combine customs clearance with freight forwarding and delivery coordination, so you deal with a single team.
