If you enter the wrong tariff code, it could result in penalties. Therefore, it’s often more efficient and risk-free to work with a customs agency, as we are well-versed in the process and ensure compliance with all regulations.

Customs clearance typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on the complexity. To ensure a smooth process and avoid delays, please send us all documents at least one week in advance. This allows time for any additional document requests and helps save on customs duties and waiting times at the border.
