TRANZPORT, INC.

TRANZPORT, INC. is a CBP-licensed customs broker headquartered in Aventura, Florida, a city situated between Miami and Fort Lauderdale that serves as a hub for international trade professionals serving South Florida's robust import market. With CBP filer code NXA, TRANZPORT operates as a licensed entry filer authorized to transact customs business on behalf of importers across the United States.

Aventura's location places TRANZPORT within close proximity to three major ports of entry: Miami International Airport (MIA), the Port of Miami, and Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale. These gateways handle significant volumes of goods originating from Latin America, the Caribbean, and Europe — making the South Florida corridor one of the most active import regions in the country. Importers moving consumer goods, food and beverage products, textiles, pharmaceuticals, and general merchandise through these ports benefit from working with a locally licensed broker familiar with the specific workflows and CBP field office procedures at these facilities.

For importers, customs compliance begins well before cargo arrives. TRANZPORT assists clients with importer security filing (ISF 10+2), which must be submitted at least 24 hours before goods are loaded at a foreign port. Failure to file timely ISF can result in CBP penalties and cargo holds — making an experienced broker an essential partner for any ocean shipment into the U.S.

Beyond ISF filing, the customs entry process itself requires accurate HTS code classification, proper valuation, and compliance with applicable trade regulations. Getting tariff codes right matters — both for paying the correct duty rate and for avoiding CBP exam flags. TRANZPORT handles customs entry preparation and can assist importers in understanding their import bond requirements, including whether a single-entry bond or continuous customs bond is the appropriate structure for their import volume.

First-time importers often find the commercial entry process complex and unfamiliar. From understanding what a type 86 entry means for de minimis Section 321 shipments, to navigating prior disclosure procedures if a past entry error is discovered, having a licensed broker on your side reduces risk and helps maintain good standing with CBP.

Additionally, importers who have paid duties on goods that were subsequently exported or destroyed may be eligible to recover those duties through a duty drawback program. Working with a duty drawback broker to evaluate eligibility and file claims can recover significant costs for businesses engaged in re-export or manufacturing operations.

TRANZPORT, INC. represents an established licensed presence in the Aventura and greater Miami customs brokerage community, offering importers a local resource for CBP compliance, entry filing, and trade documentation across South Florida's major ports of entry.
