A customs broker is a government-authorized intermediary who facilitates the clearance of goods through customs. Their main functions include:


  • Customs Clearance: The customs broker is responsible for preparing and submitting the necessary documentation for the clearance of goods at customs, ensuring compliance with all regulations and legal requirements.


  • Tariff Classification: Determining the correct tariff classification of goods according to the Harmonized System of Designation and Coding of Goods, which determines applicable taxes and tariffs.


  • Tax and Duty Calculation: Calculating the taxes and duties to be paid for the import or export of goods, including customs duties, value-added tax (VAT), and other levies.


  • Customs Advisory: Providing advice to importers and exporters on customs procedures, documentation requirements, restrictions, and international trade regulations.


  • Logistics Coordination: Coordinating the transportation logistics of goods from the point of origin to their final destination, ensuring compliance with delivery deadlines and storage requirements.


  • Customs Procedures Management: Handling all necessary procedures and paperwork for the clearance of goods at customs, including filing customs declarations, physical inspections, and payment of applicable duties.


  • Problem Resolution: Resolving any issues or discrepancies that arise during the customs clearance process, such as documentation discrepancies, additional inspections, or goods seizures.


In summary, the customs broker serves as a key facilitator in international trade, ensuring compliance with customs regulations and facilitating the efficient movement of goods across borders.
