Canadian and Mexican Border Points-of-Entry
- CDI is experienced and knowledgeable of the difference in processes involved in moving cargo across US Borders with Canada and Mexico. We ensure both international custom officers and cargo movers get what they need so your freight stays compliant with applicable laws and regulations.
CTPAT Validated – Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism
- As a member of CTPAT, U.S. Customs and Border Control has screened and approved our policies and procedures, and our team of brokers and agents extensively interviewed, to achieve repeated revalidation for membership. This voluntary but critical program allows CDI to provide import and export services that align with U.S. national interests and national security initiatives. Not all Customs Brokers are CTPAT Certified, so consider choosing CDI when you need customs brokerage services.
US Customs RSP approved for Air, Land, and Sea
- Cargo moves around the clock, and when time is critical to your imports, “regular business hours” can disrupt your workflow. In some cases, CDI can facilitate customs clearance outside of regular customs clearing schedules such as late nights and weekends.
