Importers working with Landmark Freight Solutions can expect customs entry preparation, ISF filing, and compliance guidance across a range of commodity types.

Landmark Freight Solutions, LP is a federally licensed customs broker based in Somerset, New Jersey, authorized by U.S. Customs and Border Protection under filer code 8PF. Somerset sits in the heart of Central New Jersey, placing this broker in close proximity to some of the most active import gateways in the United States — including the Port of New York and New Jersey (Port Newark-Elizabeth Marine Terminal), John F. Kennedy International Airport, and Newark Liberty International Airport. For importers moving commercial cargo into the northeastern United States, having a customs broker with local market familiarity and access to these ports is a meaningful operational advantage.
Customs brokerage in the New York/New Jersey region involves navigating a high volume of entries across a wide range of commodity types: consumer goods, electronics, textiles and apparel, machinery and equipment, chemicals, and more. A licensed broker in this market must be fluent in Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) classification, including how to conduct an accurate HTS code lookup and apply the correct duty rates using the USITC tariff database. Proper HTS code assignment is foundational to customs compliance — errors can result in delays, penalties, or overpayment of duties.
Importers working through Landmark Freight Solutions can expect support with the core requirements of U.S. import compliance. This includes Importer Security Filing (ISF) — commonly known as ISF filing or the 10+2 rule — which must be submitted to CBP at least 24 hours before cargo is loaded at the foreign port for ocean shipments. Failure to meet ISF filing requirements is one of the most common sources of CBP penalties for importers.
Beyond entry preparation and ISF, importers should also explore whether their import activity qualifies under programs like duty drawback, which allows for the recovery of duties paid on imported merchandise that is subsequently exported or destroyed. The duty drawback program, administered through CBP's ACE portal, can represent significant cost savings for eligible importers — but filing a duty drawback claim requires careful documentation and expertise.
For businesses new to importing or looking to evaluate their current processes, understanding how to import goods into the USA — including entry types, bond requirements, and ACE portal submissions — is essential groundwork. Landmark Freight Solutions, LP, as a CBP-licensed broker in the New Jersey market, is positioned to assist commercial importers in navigating these requirements accurately and efficiently. Importers in the region are encouraged to reach out to discuss their specific commodity lanes, port needs, and compliance objectives.
