Team Fanok LLC

Team Fanok LLC is a federally licensed U.S. customs broker headquartered in Hillsborough, New Jersey, holding CBP filer code 00E. The firm provides customs brokerage services to commercial importers who need reliable, accurate entry processing and regulatory compliance support when moving goods into the United States.

Located in Somerset County, NJ, Team Fanok is strategically situated near the Port of New York and New Jersey — the largest port on the East Coast and the third-busiest container port in the nation. This proximity makes the firm a practical choice for importers receiving ocean freight from Europe, Asia, and beyond, as well as air cargo transiting through Newark Liberty International Airport. Importers sourcing consumer goods, electronics, machinery, or other commercial products through Atlantic-facing lanes will find Team Fanok's location an operational advantage.

A core part of any licensed customs broker's work is ensuring import entries are filed accurately and on time. This includes customs entry preparation, classification of goods using the 10-digit HTS code system, calculation of applicable duties, and coordination with CBP on admissibility questions. Team Fanok assists clients with the Importer Security Filing — commonly called ISF 10+2 — which must be submitted at least 24 hours before a vessel departs a foreign port for the U.S. Failure to file ISF correctly can result in costly delays and penalties, making experienced broker support essential.

For importers who need continuous import bond coverage, Team Fanok can guide clients through bond requirements and help establish the right bond type for their import volume. Businesses exploring duty recovery may also benefit from consultation on duty drawback programs, including unused merchandise drawback, which allows qualifying importers to reclaim duties paid on goods that are later exported or destroyed.

Team Fanok also supports clients who require an Importer of Record arrangement — particularly foreign companies importing into the U.S. without a domestic legal entity. This service is increasingly important as cross-border e-commerce and direct-from-manufacturer importing grow in complexity.

Whether you are a first-time importer working through entry requirements, an established business managing recurring ocean or air shipments, or a company dealing with a shipment held at customs, Team Fanok LLC offers the licensed expertise to help you navigate CBP regulations.
