Frequently Asked Questions

what is customs brokerage?
Customs brokerage is the professional service of managing import/export customs clearance, documentation, and compliance on your behalf. Licensed customs brokers handle tariff classification, duty calculations, paperwork submission, inspections coordination, and regulatory compliance to ensure your cargo clears customs quickly and legally. We eliminate border delays, minimize duties through correct classification, and provide end-to-end support from pre-shipment documentation to final release at destination
What services Transworld Logistics Group provide as a customs broker?
We offer complete import/export customs clearance, ISF 10+2 filing, tariff/HTS classification, certificates of origin, transit procedures, duty drawback, customs bonds, and consulting for duty optimization.
how long does customs clearance take?
Entry processing takes 24–72 hours at most U.S. ports/airports when documentation is complete. Delays occur from errors, inspections, or missing agency approvals.
What is a customs bond?
A customs bond is a financial guarantee required by customs authorities that ensures importers pay all duties, taxes, fees, and comply with import regulations. It protects governments from unpaid obligations while allowing cargo release before final payment. Available as single-entry bonds (one shipment) or continuous bonds (unlimited shipments for 1 year), customs bonds are typically arranged through your freight forwarder or customs broker as part of the clearance process.
How Fast Can I Get a Customs Bond?
Through freight forwarder like Transworld Logistics, a customs bond can typically be arranged within 24-48 hours for single entry shipments. Continuous bonds for regular importers take 1-5 business days depending on credit approval and paperwork. We handle the entire process - application, surety approval, and CBP submission - so your cargo clears without delays. Contact us to get bonded instantly with your next shipment.
what is duty drawback in customs?
Duty drawback is a customs refund program that reimburses importers for duties, taxes, and fees paid on imported goods that are subsequently exported, destroyed, or used in exported products within a specified timeframe (typically 3-5 years). It recovers 99% of duties paid on imported materials/components used in manufacturing exported goods, making international trade more cost-competitive. Your freight forwarder or customs broker tracks eligible shipments and files drawback claims to maximize your refund.
Why Hire a Customs Broker?
Customs brokers save time, reduce costs, and eliminate compliance risks by handling complex import/export regulations, tariff classification, duty calculations, and documentation. They prevent costly delays, fines, and cargo holds by ensuring accurate paperwork, proper commodity codes, and fastest clearance routes. Licensed experts stay current with changing trade laws across countries. For perfectly executed clearance that works with your air, ocean, or group shipments,, Transworld Logistics Group delivers expertise you can trust.

      "Reliable Partner"
      I work with Transworld Logistics Group for the past 24 years, the company handled our purchases from groupage to shipping from different states in USA and Canada. During this period and with more than 500 forty feet containers shipped, TLG have always shown professionalism, great communication and excellent service. Thank you TLG

      "Outstanding Service "
      This company has given me a very reasonable price and has been on top of everything. Any question I had, as nervous as I was they answered it right away and responded very fast. Bottom line, I received my container earlier than what I expected and the price that was given to me has never changed, received everything as I packed it, sealed it and nothing damaged. If I can give Carla, Ziad and the rest of the crew 10 stars, I will.

      "value-driven provider"
      Great team to work with. They handle all our shipments for export and they always offer us the most competitive pricing for each region. They're on top of their game in the most professional way.

      Director of Imports
      "Deep Industry Understanding"
      We rely on TLG Brokerage Services for every shipment entering the U.S. with a good reason. Their deep understanding of HTS codes, FDA compliance, and port-specific regulations consistently prevents delays that would cost us time and money. When we had a high-risk shipment held for review, TLG’s swift response and documentation support got it released within 24 hours. You simply don’t find that level of commitment everywhere. They’ve earned our long-term trust.

      "Amazing Service"
      We faced a major claim with another provider before switching to TLG. Their team walked us through the entire transition and provided an amazing onboarding experience. When we had a small cargo issue last quarter, they responded immediately and resolved it without the usual back-and-forth. That level of service is rare, and we’re glad to have them in our corner.
