LAX Air Cargo

Your LAX Customs Broker for Air Cargo

Fast customs clearance for time-critical, high-value, and perishable freight arriving at Los Angeles International Airport. We front-load the work so your shipment keeps its speed.

When freight moves by air, it is because time matters. High-value electronics, pharmaceuticals, perishables, and urgent e-commerce restocks all arrive at LAX on a clock. We clear air cargo fast so your shipment does not lose the very speed you paid for.

Customs Clearance at LAX

Los Angeles International is one of the busiest air-cargo airports in the country. We prepare your entry ahead of arrival, classify your goods correctly, and clear your shipment at the airport so it releases quickly from the cargo facility. For regular importers, a continuous bond keeps every air shipment moving without per-entry delays.

Built for Time-Critical Freight

Air cargo clearance is unforgiving of paperwork gaps because the whole point is speed. We front-load the work: documents reviewed before wheels-down, classification settled in advance, and any FDA or USDA requirements handled so a perishable or regulated shipment does not stall at the counter.

Perishable and Express Cargo

Cold-chain produce, flowers, seafood, and pharmaceuticals cannot wait. Our perishable and express air clearance is built to move these shipments through customs the moment they land.

Air Freight Forwarding

Need the transportation arranged too? We coordinate international air freight forwarding so booking, arrival, and clearance are handled by one team.

From LAX to Your Facility

Once your shipment clears, we can arrange trucking from the airport cargo area to your warehouse or distribution center anywhere in the LA basin, keeping the speed advantage all the way to your door.

Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can you clear air cargo at LAX?

Air shipments with clean documents and an entry filed ahead of arrival can clear shortly after landing. Because air freight is time-critical, we settle classification and any agency requirements in advance so nothing stalls at the cargo facility.

Do you handle perishable and cold-chain air cargo?

Yes. We clear perishables such as produce, flowers, seafood, and pharmaceuticals, coordinating any FDA or USDA requirements so temperature-sensitive shipments move through customs without delay.

Should I get a continuous bond for regular air shipments?

If you import frequently, a continuous bond usually makes sense. It covers all your entries for a year rather than paying per shipment, and it keeps each air shipment moving without a per-entry bond step.
