With over 35 years in operation, SBIS Inc — also doing business as Sun Bay International — holds Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and VOSB certifications from the SBA. Located in the South Bay area of Los Angeles County, the firm is strategically positioned to serve importers moving cargo through the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, the busiest container port complex in the United States.

SBIS Inc is a federally licensed customs broker based in Gardena, California, a hub for logistics and trade services in the greater Los Angeles South Bay region. Operating under CBP filer code WIB and also known as Sun Bay International, the company has been in continuous operation for more than 35 years — a track record that reflects substantial experience navigating the complexities of U.S. import regulations.

Gardena's location places SBIS Inc within close proximity to the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, which together handle the majority of containerized imports entering the United States from Asia. Importers sourcing electronics, consumer goods, textiles and apparel, machinery and equipment, and manufactured products from Pacific Rim trading partners frequently require a licensed broker with deep familiarity with the CBP entry processes specific to these ports. SBIS Inc is positioned to serve that demand.

SBIS Inc holds SBA certifications as both a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and a Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB). These designations make SBIS a compelling partner for government contractors and federal agencies with supplier diversity requirements, in addition to its core commercial customs brokerage work.

For importers, SBIS Inc supports the full range of entry and compliance activities. This includes customs entry preparation for both formal and informal entry classifications, importer of record requirements fulfillment, ISF 10+2 filing (importer security filing), and assistance securing continuous customs bonds or single entry bonds depending on shipment volume and frequency. The firm can assist clients in understanding HTS code classification — including the 10-digit HTS code level required for formal entries — as well as the distinction between Schedule B and HTS codes for import versus export reporting.

Importers moving eligible goods may also benefit from duty drawback program consultation, including unused merchandise drawback and manufacturing drawback customs claims, which can recover previously paid duties on re-exported goods. For low-value shipments, guidance on Section 321 de minimis thresholds is increasingly relevant given the growth of e-commerce imports.

With decades of experience in Southern California's trade corridor and a commitment to veteran-owned enterprise, SBIS Inc represents a well-established option for importers seeking a licensed customs broker near the LA/Long Beach port gateway.
