The Customs Broker: Your Partner in Import
Jack Lewin Associates is a full-service Customs Brokerage and freight forwarding company located near Chicago O'Hare Airport in Des Plaines, a western suburb of Chicago, IL. We can offer worldwide logistics services.
Why do I need a customs broker?
There is no legal requirement for you to hire a customs broker to clear your goods, however, many importers opt to do so for the convenience. Several members of the Jack Lewin Associates team are regulated by and licensed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assist importers in meeting Federal requirements governing imports so you can rest assured that your shipment will be handled correctly and with care.
Jack Lewin Associates is linked with CBP as well as many Partner Government Agency (PGA) organizations. This means that we can assist with the required electronic submissions of entry data and documentation for agencies such as U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and more.
Our role as a C-TPAT partner is to continue to ensure that appropriate security measures, based upon risk analysis and consistent with C-TPAT security criteria, are maintained in a documented and verifiable format throughout your international supply chains.
