Customs Brokerage
What is Customs Brokerage?
Customs brokerage is the act of a third-party acting on behalf of you to ensure that your international shipments successfully comply with foreign customs mandates to ensure your products arrive on time and without delay or penalty.

Trust Customs Brokerage to the Experts
Your skillset lies within your business. With that in mind, it's usually not in your best interest to attempt handling mass shipments without the guidance and expertise of someone whose skillset lies in understanding customs compliance.
Shipping Grand has a full staff of experts who understand how to account for every potential setback, as our team has seen it all and what can happen. Goods need to be itemized by description, type, weight class, and so on. All cargo must be properly classified, evaluated, and have the appropriate import taxes paid and signed prior to arriving at customs.
Failure to comply with any one of the steps (and some can be easy to mess up) can result in fines, fees, shipment delays, and even cargo seizure. All of these issues compound as it creates a loss of business revenue and affects your reputation with customers and partners overseas.
