US Customs clearance is the process of legally importing goods into the United States — filing the required documentation with US Customs and Border Protection (CBP), paying applicable duties, and securing release of your cargo from the port of entry.
FreightVietnam is a licensed US Customs Broker specializing in Vietnam imports. We handle ISF 10+2 filing, formal entry preparation, HS classification, ADD/CVD analysis, and coordinated port exams — for all modes of transport.
Our Customs Clearance Services
ISF 10+2 Filing
We file Importer Security Filing (ISF) at least 24 hours before vessel departure from Vietnam — guaranteed.
Customs Entry Preparation
We prepare and file the formal entry summary (CBP Form 3461 / 7501) with all supporting documents.
HS Classification
Accurate HTS classification to minimize duty rates and avoid costly reclassification by CBP.
Duty Optimization
We review classification, valuation, and applicable trade programs (GSP, FTAs) to reduce your duty burden.
ADD / CVD Analysis
Vietnam exports are subject to antidumping and countervailing duties on many commodities. We identify exposure before you import.

How US Customs Clearance Works
1. Pre-Shipment Review
We review your commercial invoice, packing list, and HTS classification before cargo ships — catching issues early.
2. ISF Filing (Ocean)
We file ISF 10+2 at least 24 hours before the vessel departs Vietnam — mandatory for all ocean freight.
3. Entry Preparation
On arrival, we prepare the CBP entry summary, calculate duties, and submit electronically via ACE.
4. Exam Coordination
If CBP selects your shipment for exam (X-ray, CET, tailgate), we coordinate with the port and keep you informed.
5. Release & Payment
Once CBP issues the release, we coordinate drayage and confirm duty payment through the CBP-approved broker bond.
6. Delivery
Cargo is released from port and delivered to your warehouse, FBA center, or distribution hub.
