When you find a broker, compare their fees with the fees charged by the shipping company's in-house customs brokerage service. You may find the shipper less expensive.
How Do I Find A Customs Broker?
I ordered something from a seller in Singapore and the shipping company just called asking me what customs broker I wanted to use. Until now, I didn't even know what a customs broker was. The shipping company offered to find one for me but I've got a feeling they are going to levy a whole bunch of additional charges on me.
So does anyone have any idea how I go about finding a good and relatively inexpensive customs broker? I am in New York City. Apparently, the broker will charge me handling fees as well as an entry fee. This is on top of any duties I need to pay for the item.
