With air cargo, customs clearance begins even before departure: your shipment receives an electronic declaration that is checked by customs. For both exports and imports, documents are submitted (such as commercial invoices and customs declaration), goods are checked and only then released for loading or delivery. Proper and timely customs clearance speeds up the process and prevents delays and additional costs. Want to know more? Read the article here.
