How to get my shipment cleared through Customs |
| |
|
| |
In order to utilize our services to clear your import shipment through U.S. Customs, you must first designate Western Overseas as your Customs Broker; providing us with some basic information about your company. Please see the preceding section How to open an account with Western Overseas.
Secondly, you will need to provide us with shipping documents and/or some information about your incoming shipment. The basic documents we need in order to prepare a Customs entry are:
- The seller’s commercial invoice
- A packing list
- Either a copy of the airwaybill (air freight shipments) or the bill of lading (ocean freight shipments).
In some cases we may need the original of the invoice or bill of lading and we will advise you if that is the case. In the event your cargo is arriving by air, you may not have any documents as they may be sent with the cargo. In this case, we will need the airwaybill number in order to trace the shipment.
If you have an import shipment which needs Customs clearance, please contact your closest Western Overseas office or send us an email at: sales@westernoverseas.com
