About LAY NHI SONG

Lay Nhi Song is a CBP-licensed customs broker based in Richmond, Texas, located in the greater Houston metropolitan area. With a direct filer code (8A5) issued by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Lay Nhi Song is authorized to transact customs business on behalf of importers across the United States. Richmond's proximity to the Port of Houston — one of the busiest cargo ports in the country — positions this broker to serve a wide range of importers moving goods through Gulf Coast entry points. Businesses and individuals seeking customs clearance support in the Houston area can reach Lay Nhi Song directly at 832-903-2963.

Lay Nhi Song is a federally licensed U.S. customs broker operating out of Richmond, Texas, a southwest suburb of Houston in Fort Bend County. Holding an active CBP broker license with filer code 8A5, this broker is authorized to act as an agent for importers in all matters related to customs entry, classification, and clearance before U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Richmond, TX sits within easy reach of the Port of Houston, which ranks among the top ports in the United States by total cargo tonnage. Importers moving containerized freight, breakbulk cargo, or project cargo through Houston terminals benefit from having a locally based customs broker who understands the operational rhythms of Gulf Coast logistics. The Houston port complex handles significant volumes of machinery, industrial equipment, chemicals, petrochemical inputs, steel products, and consumer goods — categories where accurate HTS classification and timely entry filing are essential to avoiding costly delays.

In addition to Houston port activity, Richmond's location within Texas also places this broker within the broader Texas trade corridor that includes major land border crossings at Laredo and other South Texas ports of entry. Texas consistently ranks as the top state for U.S. imports and exports, driven heavily by cross-border trade with Mexico. Importers sourcing manufactured goods, automotive components, or agricultural products through Mexican supply chains may find a Houston-area broker a practical choice for customs representation.

For importers asking what a customs broker does: a licensed broker prepares and submits entry documentation to CBP, ensures goods are properly classified under the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, calculates applicable duties and fees, coordinates with freight forwarders and carriers, and helps importers maintain compliance with admissibility requirements from partner government agencies such as the FDA, USDA, and EPA.

To inquire about customs brokerage services or discuss an upcoming shipment, contact Lay Nhi Song at 832-903-2963.
