About Us

Finding a Licensed Customs Broker Shouldn't Be This Hard

We built CustomsBrokerIndex because importers waste hours on outdated government PDFs, dead phone numbers, and brokers who don't specialize in their commodity. There's a better way.

The Only Directory Built for How Importers Actually Search

CBP publishes a list of licensed brokers. But a flat, un-searchable PDF isn't a directory — it's a wall of data. We transform that raw data into a fully searchable, filterable, SEO-indexed database that connects importers with the right broker for their shipment, commodity, and port.

Every broker listing on CustomsBrokerIndex is verified against official CBP license records. No fake listings. No outdated agencies. Just licensed professionals, organized so you can actually find them.
