About Wasatch CHB LLC
Wasatch CHB LLC is a CBP-licensed customs broker operating in Bellingham, Washington, a major port of entry on the US-Canada border. Licensed under filer code 8KA, the firm is positioned to assist importers moving goods across the northern border through the Blaine/Bellingham port area. With a Utah-area phone number suggesting roots or affiliates in the Intermountain West, Wasatch CHB serves importers who need reliable customs clearance, entry preparation, and compliance support at one of the Pacific Northwest's busiest land border crossings. Whether you're a first-time importer or an established business, Wasatch CHB LLC offers the licensed expertise to navigate CBP requirements efficiently.
Wasatch CHB LLC holds a CBP-issued customs broker license with filer code 8KA and maintains an operational presence in Bellingham, Washington — a key port city directly adjacent to the Canadian border at Blaine. This geographic position makes Wasatch CHB LLC a practical resource for importers managing cross-border trade between the United States and Canada, one of the world's largest bilateral trading relationships.
Bellingham sits within the Puget Sound trade corridor, not far from the ports of Seattle and Tacoma, giving the broker access to a broad range of import channels. Importers shipping consumer goods, machinery, agricultural products, or raw materials across the northern border can benefit from working with a locally licensed broker who understands the regulatory landscape at this port of entry.
For first-time importers, navigating CBP Form 3461 for entry and understanding HTS code classifications — including hts code meaning and how tariff codes affect duty rates — can be overwhelming. Wasatch CHB LLC provides customs entry preparation that takes the complexity out of commercial entry customs CBP filings. The firm can also assist clients in evaluating continuous customs bond requirements, which are essential for frequent importers moving regulated or high-value goods.
Importer Security Filing (ISF), commonly known as the 10+2 filing, is a mandatory pre-shipment requirement for ocean freight. Wasatch CHB LLC handles ISF filing to ensure importers remain compliant and avoid CBP penalties before cargo arrives at US shores.
For importers who have previously paid duties on goods later exported or used in manufacturing, a duty drawback program may allow recovery of those payments. Understanding how to file duty drawback and qualifying for a duty drawback refund can represent meaningful savings — Wasatch CHB LLC can guide clients through this process.
Section 321 de minimis provisions, which allow low-value shipments to enter the US duty-free, are another area where knowledgeable broker guidance can benefit e-commerce and small-volume importers. Similarly, businesses under or anticipating a focused assessment CBP customs review will benefit from a licensed broker who understands compliance documentation and prior disclosure CBP procedures.
Wasatch CHB LLC's Utah-area contact number suggests the firm may serve clients across the western United States, coordinating northern border entries on behalf of inland importers who don't have local broker representation near Bellingham.
