Customs Power of Attorney
Legal document authorizing a customs broker to act on your behalf.
Detailed Explanation
A Customs Power of Attorney (POA) is a legal document that grants a licensed customs broker the authority to conduct customs business on behalf of an importer or exporter. This includes making entry, filing declarations, paying duties, and signing documents. Without a valid POA, a broker cannot legally clear shipments for a client. It is a fundamental document for any business using third-party logistics providers for customs clearance.
