Submit ISF forms & Clearance at Custom Office
You will need to fill the ISF forms required by the Customs and Border Protection 24 hours before cargo is loaded. Use the information in the B/L copy to fill the ISF forms. It’s impossible to fill the ISF forms without any help because CBP requires certified software partners to fill ISF, which only regular import companies have. Our clients normally use ISF filing service websites such as eezyimport , isf-filling , turboisf ,...
Few days before your car arrives, you will receive an arrival notice through email about the arrival date. Use the information on the arrival notice to complete all the required forms. Bring your printed forms & copies of the original papers we have sent to you (invoice, export certificate, translated export certificate,..) to the custom office of your arrival port. The required documents may vary depending on the state of the destination port, so you should have all the documents copied. Pay the duty fee & taxes at the customs office.
Receive:
Once finishing the car clearances, you can take the car from port to your home. There are 2 ways for you to do that.
 Get the car by yourself
    Get the car by yourselfCall the port to notice and arrange an appointment for pickup. To get in the port, some ports require an es  cort or an individual with TWIC (transport workers identity card). Go to the pickup location, load it up on a trailer and haul it away.
 Have a carrier get it for you
    Have a carrier get it for youHire a shipping company to ship the car for you. Send them the detailed pickup location and they will ship the car from port to your home.
Registration:
Go to your local DMV to do the registration. The export certificate has the same value as the car title. Bring the original and the English translation we sent you and then you can register and titling like any other car.
 
💡 Tips:
- You can hire an import broker to do all the paperwork & shipping for you. It might take some extra cost for their service, but it will save you a lot of time and effort.
- We recommend that you should not drive the car home because this is not registered yet and you might get into trouble with the police.
- Call the state DMV and ask what documents you need and they’ll be able to help.
