Shipping commercial goods involves understanding the customs clearance process, which ensures compliance with import/export regulations. Customs brokers are licensed professionals who assist in this process by handling necessary documents, taxes, and legal requirements. A customs bond is a financial guarantee required for compliance with customs regulations. Importer Security Filing (ISF) is a needed filing of specific information prior to shipping goods to the United States. Incoterms clarify responsibilities, costs, and risks between buyers and sellers in international trade. Staying updated on customs regulations and trade policies is crucial to avoid compliance issues or delays.
