KAMINO AIR IMPORT CORP

Kamino Air Import Corp has been a fixture in the customs brokerage community since its founding in 1970, making it one of the longer-standing family-owned brokerages operating out of northern New Jersey. Based at 423 Hazel Street in Clifton, NJ, the firm holds CBP license filer code 176 and is well-positioned to serve importers moving freight through the New York and New Jersey port complex — one of the busiest on the East Coast.

For importers asking what a customs broker does, Kamino provides exactly that answer in practice: the firm manages the entire customs clearance process, including preparation and filing of customs entries, classification of goods under the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, calculation and payment of duties and fees, and coordination with CBP and other partner government agencies. Their team handles the documentation and compliance requirements that allow goods to legally enter the United States.

A defining strength of Kamino is its bilingual capability. With Spanish-speaking staff on hand — noted directly in their service materials with "Hablamos Español" — the firm is particularly well-suited to serve importers sourcing goods from Latin America, the Caribbean, and Spanish-speaking markets globally. This makes them a practical resource not only for the northeastern U.S. importer base, but for businesses across the country looking for a broker with strong language and cultural fluency in those trade lanes.

Kamino has also built specific expertise in time-sensitive and temperature-sensitive cargo — a niche that demands speed, precision, and knowledge of regulatory requirements beyond standard commercial freight. This positions the firm well for food, beverage, perishable, and pharmaceutical imports where clearance delays can result in spoilage or compliance failures.

The firm is currently expanding its footprint with a new location in the Orlando–Saint Cloud, Florida area, extending its geographic reach beyond the Northeast corridor. This growth reflects demand from importers throughout the Southeast looking for experienced, hands-on brokerage support.

Whether you are a first-time importer or an established business managing regular shipments, Kamino Air Import Corp brings over five decades of customs experience, a bilingual team, and a client-focused approach to every transaction.
