IMPORTING - A Practical Guide For Importing Products into the U.S.A.

Written by a 32 year veteran international freight forwarder and licensed Customs Broker, our guide gives you the valuable information you need to know when dealing with overseas suppliers and takes the arrangement of your shipment from Supplier's Door to your final destination. Every step in the importing process is explained in laymen's terms and the steps are arranged in the order in which you should proceed to avoid costly delays and/or fines. Chapter discussions range from negotiating Incoterms, to Customs Classifications, negotiating freight and brokerage rates, figuring air freight dimensional weight and ocean freight cubic feet or meters, and everything in between.
