Why early review matters
Customs and logistics issues are easier to resolve before cargo moves. Early review creates time to clarify documents, permits, classification, valuation, booking, handling, and delivery conditions.
The best starting point is a complete shipment brief supported by available commercial, product, and transport information. RET can then identify what requires deeper review.
