Gain Peace of Mind and Customs Compliance with Our Expert Team
In today’s global marketplace, navigating U.S. customs regulations can be overwhelming—especially for small to mid-sized businesses trying to import goods without the luxury of a full-time in-house compliance team. That’s where Global Gate Consulting steps in.
Think of us as your in-house customs department—without the overhead. Our experienced consultants work alongside your team to ensure your shipments move seamlessly, compliantly, and cost-effectively across borders.
What Does It Mean to Have Global Gate as Your In-House Customs Department?
Instead of hiring and managing a full-time customs staff, companies rely on Global Gate Consulting to:
- Interpret and apply U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) regulations
- Manage and file import documentation (Entry Summaries, ISFs, CBMA claims, FTZ admissions, and more)
- Resolve classification and valuation issues
- Identify and mitigate compliance risks
- Coordinate with customs brokers, freight forwarders, and warehouse operators
- Support with audits, enforcement actions, or prior disclosures
With Global Gate, you’re not just outsourcing a service—you’re gaining a dedicated trade compliance partner that understands the rules and speaks your language.
