Understand Your Import Requirements

Prepare your exhibition shipment with greater clarity

International exhibition shipments may require specific declarations, supporting documents and arrangements depending on the type of goods, their intended use and whether they will be returned after the event. Missing information or misunderstandings about temporary import procedures can lead to delays, additional costs or complications.

Our Customs & Temporary Import Coordination service helps you identify the questions that need to be addressed and coordinate with relevant freight forwarders and customs specialists. This gives your team a clearer view of the documentation, responsibilities and next steps involved in preparing exhibition goods for Japan.

Clarify your customs requirements early. Help keep your exhibition shipment on track by identifying documentation needs and coordinating next steps before shipping.
