If you are
shipping any goods into the US, they must be cleared by US Customs and
Border Protection. US Customs recommends the use of a Customs Broker due
to the complex requirements and complicated forms required to receive
US Customs clearance. As a licensed
US Customs Broker,
Go Global Logistics acts as an agent for an importer or exporter and
conducts Customs business on their behalf. We will perform all necessary
steps to obtain US Customs clearance for your goods in order to get
your shipments released and delivered to their final destination in a
timely manner. Choosing a customs broker is an important decision and
can often mean the difference between an on-time shipments and costly
delays.
In order to be a Customs Broker one must be licensed by
US Customs and Border Protection,
U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Specifically, a Customs Broker
prepares and files the necessary Customs entries, arranges for the
payment of duties found due, takes steps to affect the release of the
goods in Customs custody, and represents their clients in custody
matters. Go Global Logistics is a Boston headquartered
Customs Broker servicing the
Port of Boston Massachusetts, all of
New England, and has customers across the country.
A
Customs Broker must have an excellent understanding of trade requirements and
procedures and customs and tariff regulations. At Go Global Logistics,
we are on the cutting edge and keep our clients updated with these
frequently changing policies. We can advise on transportation options,
types of carriers, and shipping routes and will also assist the client
with exchange rates, appraisals, and proper classifications and duties,
including all factors affecting appraisement and the many regulations
concerning calculation of duties. Our operation often transcends
Customs, calling for contact with over 40 other government agencies,
such as the
U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) on perishables importation, the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on vehicle emission standards or the
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on product safety. A Customs Broker must be aware of any potential
problem involving every entry item represented, including cargo handling
and other government agency requirements, so we work with each client
individually to avoid problems and facilitate a smooth, efficient supply
chain. In light of these fragmented and complex requirements, Go Global
Logistics is the only logical choice for all of your
supply chain and
logistics needs.

National Customs Brokers and Forwarders Association of America and our employees are the best in the industry. We pride ourselves on
