Our Regulatory Credentials & Trust Standards

Who We Are

USA Customs Clearance serves as the digital client interface for AFC International, LLC. AFC International, LLC is a fully permitted, licensed corporate U.S. Customs Brokerage with decades of operational logistics and trade compliance history.

At USA Customs Clearance, we do not use artificial intelligence (AI) in our informational articles. Every piece is human-written by our Trade Compliance Writers and reviewed by Licensed Customs Brokers.

 

Author Qualifications

Every article is reviewed by a Licensed US Customs Broker. Author bios (in addition to Last Modified Date by a Licensed Customs Broker) appear at the top of each guide.

 

Purpose & Scope

USA Customs Clearance publishes plain-language guides to help importers comply with US Customs & Border Protection (CBP) and Partner Government Agency (PGA) regulations. All content focuses on customs bonds, Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) classifications, PGA rules, and related topics.

 

Research & Sourcing Standards

Our Compliance Process

We research and pull trade data directly from official government repositories, including but not limited to the United States International Trade Commission (USITC), Customs and Border Protection (CBP), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Every technical guide is drafted by international logistics experts and audited by senior compliance managers before publication.

We continuously monitor Federal Register updates, Section 301 tariff changes, and global trade agreements to maintain accurate information. 

Disclaimer: Customs requirements and regulatory standards fluctuate rapidly. For a binding classification or a specific logistics assessment for your business, please contact our licensed brokerage team directly via our Customs Consultation Portal.

 

Limitations of Our Content

Our materials are educational and informational, not a substitute for legal advice.
Readers should always consult official government publications or seek professional legal counsel for decisions requiring legal interpretation.

We are not responsible for outcomes resulting from reliance on our content without appropriate due diligence.

 

Editorial Workflow

  1. Drafted content
  2. Technical review by a senior broker
  3. Compliance/legal review
  4. Copy-editing for clarity
  5. Publication

No article goes live until at least two (2) licensed professionals have signed off on it.

 

Fact-Checking & Review Cadence

Content is re-audited every 12 months or sooner, especially when CBP issues a new directive. Each informational article reflects the most recent fact-check by our U.S. Licensed Customs Brokers.

 

Corrections Policy

If you spot an error, please submit a response in our Contact Form with the article URL and error in question. We investigate within two (2) business days and post a correction or clarification within five (5) business days when warranted.

 

Advertising & Sponsorship Disclosure

We do not accept paid guest posts or external sponsorships. Calls-to-action that invite you to purchase a customs bond only link to our in-house brokerage services, and are clearly labeled as “Get a Customs Bond.”

 

Date Stamps & Version History

Each informational article displays only 1 published date and that is the most recent up-to-date version.

 

Security & Anti-Fraud Policy

To protect our personnel, corporate infrastructure, and clients from digital identity fraud, corporate spoofing, and social engineering, USA Customs Clearance does not publish individual employee customs broker license numbers online.

Instead, our legitimacy is verified at the corporate level via USA Customs Clearance’s active CBP Filer Code (E4J), our corporate bonds, and our verified institutional history. 

All customs filings, bonds, and classifications are processed securely through our corporate infrastructure under strict regulatory oversight.
