Shipping goods internationally means you’ll have to deal with customs and duties. Customs are government regulations that ensure that goods entering a country comply with the laws and standards of that country. Duties are taxes imposed on certain goods, which vary by destination and product category. Before shipping, it’s important to understand the customs requirements for your destination country and provide all necessary documentation, such as invoices and certificates of origin. Working with a customs broker can help ensure that you comply with regulations, avoid delays, and prevent unnecessary charges.
