Customs is more than customs clearance
Demystifying customs is an important task. Businesses and people who are not involved in the daily business of customs are hesitant to speak about customs. It seems to be too complex - with complexity even increasing over the last decades. Authorities and companies have been receiving more tasks and responsibilities related to supply chain security.
We take the complex responsibilities related to customs very seriously. Our task is to simplify this for the non-customs people and their businesses.
