USDA Permits

FDAImports.com can assist importing and exporting companies shipping meats or fresh produce in obtaining necessary importation or exportation permits from various U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) agencies. Lacking such permits, USDA may restrict ports of entry through which such products may enter the U.S., or Customs and Border Protection will prohibit the delivery of the shipment to the importer or the consignee. Storage and demurrage costs can escalate while importers or exporters wait for government agencies to find the time to inspect documents or product severely damaging the value of the shipment to the buyer or seller.

Further, FDAImports.com provides consulting services to assist U.S. manufacturers and brand owners seeking to internationalize their products and brands into foreign markets. This may include assessing and advising the client on the U.S. export and foreign country regulatory and customs process to enable a smooth exportation/importation process for U.S. made products. It also may assist in arranging for or obtaining certifications from government agencies or third parties and assisting in designing an appropriate sampling and testing protocol.
