What Are Clearing and Forwarding Services?
Clearing and forwarding involve two critical components of international shipping logistics:
Clearing – This involves customs documentation, regulatory compliance, duty payments, and release of cargo from port authorities.
Forwarding – Once cleared, cargo is transported to its final destination—be it a warehouse, retail location, or factory.
At Cargoburg, we combine both services into a seamless, end-to-end solution for clients using Apapa Port. From container tracking to customs compliance and last-mile delivery, we manage everything so that your cargo moves without delays, bottlenecks, or extra costs.
