A licensed customs broker for Miami freight

How remote filing in Miami actually works

Since customs went electronic, an entry is filed in ACE, not walked to a counter. Our own ACE connection transmits your Miami entry the moment your documents are complete, often before the vessel berths or the flight lands. CBP's Miami officers process it exactly as they would an entry from a broker two blocks away, because electronically that is what it is.

What matters instead of the address: a broker who answers the phone, files the same day, reads your invoice in the language it was written in, and has 19 years of entries behind the filer code. That is the service Miami importers actually shop for when they type customs broker Miami into a search box.

PortMiami: containers, and the clocks under them

PortMiami runs a steady diet of containerized consumer goods, apparel, building materials and food products, much of it from Latin America and Asia, much of it owned by importers who operate in Spanish. We file the entries, work the holds, and coordinate with your trucker so the release lands while your free time is still alive. When CBP flags a box for exam, we manage the document side and can arrange the exam-site drayage through carrier partners.

MIA: air cargo does not wait

Miami International Airport is the western hemisphere's perishables gateway: flowers, produce, seafood, pharmaceuticals, and high-value electronics moving on hours instead of days. Air entries reward a broker who files ahead of arrival, and perishables add partner agency review, FDA and USDA, where a slow response costs product, not just money. Our direct agency connections move those reviews as fast as they can be moved.

The Latin America trade, in its own language

Miami's import community negotiates in Spanish, invoices in Spanish, and then too often has to explain itself to its broker in English. Our whole team works in both languages. Send the invoice as it is; we will not lose your entry in translation, and when CBP has questions we can walk you through them in whichever language makes the answer clearer.

Doral, Hialeah and the warehouse corridor

Miami customs work does not end at the port gate. The freight lives in Doral's forwarder district and Hialeah's industrial blocks, and the paperwork follows it there: in-bond transfers to bonded warehouses, entries for freight arriving via other ports, drawback records for the re-export trade to Latin America. We serve that whole corridor, and the dedicated Doral and Hialeah pages cover their specifics.

One broker, both ends of the PR lane

A large share of Miami freight is really Puerto Rico freight in transit: goods clearing at PortMiami bound for San Juan, or island cargo routing through South Florida. We are the rare brokerage that is native on both ends, CBP entry on the mainland and excise, SURI and APHIS on the island, so the same file follows the freight across the water.

Duty refunds and drawback for Miami importers

If you paid IEEPA tariffs, Section 301 duties or more duty than you owed, part of it may be recoverable: IEEPA refunds through CBP's CAPE process, post-summary corrections and protests for entries filed wrong, and duty drawback, up to 99 percent of the duties paid, on goods you export. Our free refund checker tells you which route fits your entries, and we file every one of them for Miami importers under filer code EWV.
