Quote factors

What affects the price?

Broker charges, government duties and taxes, inspection or storage charges, document corrections and delivery after release can affect total cost. The written quote should separate these from freight.

Important service limits

ETA is not the customs broker of record. Classification, tax assessment, declaration and official release are handled by the partner broker and relevant authorities. Importers remain responsible for accurate documents and applicable duties and taxes unless a written agreement states otherwise.
