For customs clearance, you generally need a Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Bill of Lading (B/L), Certificate of Origin, Import/Export Declaration, Customs Bond, Insurance Certificate, Health and Safety Certificates, Import/Export License, Letter of Credit (L/C), and Proforma Invoice. Transit Documents may also be required for shipments passing through multiple countries.

The customs clearance process typically takes anywhere from a few hours to several days, depending on factors such as the complexity of the shipment, the efficiency of the customs authority, the accuracy of the submitted documentation, and whether the shipment is subject to additional inspections or holds. In general, well-prepared and straightforward shipments can clear customs relatively quickly, while more complicated or high-risk shipments may experience delays.

Fees associated with customs clearance often include customs duties (taxes on imported goods), import VAT or sales tax, brokerage fees (charges for customs services), and handling fees (for processing and managing the shipment). Additional costs might arise from storage fees if goods are held at customs, inspection fees if the shipment is examined, and administrative fees for paperwork and compliance services. These fees can vary depending on the nature of the goods, their value, and the specific customs regulations of the country.
