Eastern Europe Shipping Specialists Since 1987

Customs Clearance
Agent Services

Let us handle import compliance, importer security filings, customs clearance, and payment of fees and duties — in the US, Poland, and across the EU.

I.C.E. Helps You
Customs Made Simple

We take the complexity of international customs clearance off your plate — so you can focus on your business, not paperwork.

Comply with U.S. Customs Requirements

Paperwork, fees, duty payments. We understand and monitor the full range of US Customs and Border Protection requirements so you don’t have to. From classification to ISF filings, we keep your shipments moving.

Clear Personal Effects

We know the ins and outs of global shipping of personal property and will make sure you pay only what is legally required. When residency and documentation rules are followed correctly, there should be no import duties on personal effects.

Simplify Global Shipping

I.C.E. offers customs clearance agent services as part of an integrated, door-to-door solution. Having one partner handle ocean freight, trucking, and customs clearance on both sides eliminates handoffs and reduces errors.

Complex Clearance

We handle the tough stuff

Most customs clearances are straightforward. But some aren’t. I.C.E. reduces your time and risk by handling the more complex clearance processes required for FDA- and USDA-regulated products, as well as shipments for temporary importation.

We also manage binding ruling applications, HTS classification disputes, and shipments subject to anti-dumping duty reviews — the kind of work where a mistake costs thousands of dollars and days of delay.

Why I.C.E. for Customs
Choose I.C.E. Because…

We’ve been clearing freight across the US–Eastern Europe trade lane since 1987. Here’s what that expertise means for your shipments.

1

One-source solution for global shipments

I.C.E. manages ocean freight, landside trucking, and customs clearance as a single integrated move. Having one partner accountable for every leg eliminates the finger-pointing that happens when customs issues are the ocean line’s fault, or the trucker’s, or someone else’s.

2

Expertise in customs regulations, bond requirements, and duty rates

Our team stays current on the Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS), CBP regulations, and duty rates across the US, Poland, and the EU. We know how customs brokerage services work in practice, not just on paper.

3

Set-up of proper customs bonds for importers of record

A continuous bond or single-entry bond is required for every commercial import. We set up and manage the right bond structure for your import volume and risk profile, and ensure you’re properly set up as importer of record from day one.

4

Arrangement of temporary imports under bond (TIB)

Equipment brought into the US for repair, exhibition, or testing can often enter duty-free under a Temporary Import Bond. We handle the application, monitoring, and re-export compliance to ensure the bond is discharged cleanly.

5

Import of FDA- and USDA-regulated products

Food, beverages, medical devices, agricultural products, and certain manufactured goods require coordination with the FDA or USDA in addition to standard CBP clearance. We manage the filings, holds, and release processes so your goods aren’t delayed at port.

6

Remote filing of customs entries, including ISF / 10+2

The Import Security Filing (ISF) must be submitted at least 24 hours before your container departs the origin port. A late or incorrect filing carries a $5,000 fine. We monitor vessel schedules and submit ISF proactively, eliminating that risk entirely.

7

Experienced team of forwarders to advise you on customs requirements

Every shipment is assigned to a real person who knows your account. When CBP flags a shipment or requests additional documentation, you hear from us — not an automated system — and we tell you exactly what to do and how long it will take.
