Passport Global Inc, based in Riverton, Utah and licensed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection under filer code DBQ, provides customs brokerage and Importer of Record (IOR) services to commercial importers operating across domestic and international trade lanes. The firm is reachable at 206-707-1106 and serves businesses that need reliable, knowledgeable support at every stage of the import lifecycle.
For companies unfamiliar with U.S. import requirements, Passport Global offers guidance on foundational compliance topics including HTS code classification, the distinction between formal vs. informal entry customs thresholds, CBP entry types explained in plain terms, and continuous customs bond arrangements. Importers dealing with complex commodity classifications — from consumer electronics to textiles — benefit from accurate Schedule B vs. HTS code alignment that prevents costly delays and penalties.
Passport Global's service model is built around matching the right IOR or brokerage solution to each shipment's specific profile. Not every provider can assume Importer of Record liability, and not every broker handles all modes of transport or commodity types. By focusing on geographic coverage, service type fit, and shipment mode — whether courier, air freight, or ocean freight — the firm helps importers avoid mismatches that lead to clearance failures.
The firm also supports importers dealing with time-sensitive situations. Shipments held at customs require fast action: correcting documentation, resolving entry discrepancies, and communicating with CBP on tight timelines. Passport Global's rescue-oriented clearance support is designed for exactly these scenarios, including those involving partner government agencies such as the FDA, USDA, or EPA, whose involvement can complicate standard release timelines.
For businesses establishing recurring import programs — weekly or monthly lanes with predictable volumes — Passport Global provides ongoing program setup that addresses importer security filing (ISF) obligations, customs compliance audit readiness, and duty management including potential duty drawback program eligibility. Companies importing lower-value goods may also benefit from guidance on Section 321 de minimis provisions, where applicable.
Whether you're searching for a customs broker near you in the Intermountain West or need remote brokerage support for a national import operation, Passport Global Inc offers a structured, commercially focused approach to U.S. customs clearance.
