CUSTOMS CLEARANCE

In the global marketplace, rapidly changing demands on production and delivery schedules have placed increased responsibility on Customs to provide expert Customs Clearance Services.

Shift Logistics is recognized as one of the leading startup customs clearances in the country. Shift Logistics has long-standing professional relationships with gov’t agencies and this hard earned and privileged status delivers a distinct advantage when it comes to negotiating difficult consignments and dealing with the challenges of bureaucratic procedures in Ethiopian context.

Regardless of the speed with which a consignment reaches one of Ethiopian destination points, complex customs procedures and documentation requirements can result in indefinite delays costing heavy storage charges to consignees.

Shift Logistics are comprehensively trained to understand complex customs procedures of each specific area of operation. Our customs clearance team will take full and complete responsibility to ensure that the correct documentation is prepared well in advance of all import and export deadlines in order to avoid expensive and time-consuming delays. To further strengthen this aspect of our operations, Shift Logistics maintains a network across the country. These facilities, which are suitable for any type of cargo, can be reached by road, rail or air and ensure that shipments are swiftly cleared within short period of time.
