Eagle Tail Logistics Limited is a licensed customs broker. We assist with customs clearance for cargo travelling by air and sea and share trade alerts and regulatory updates with clients.
Our service covers clearance of import and export consignments by road, air and sea. Support includes advice on import and export paperwork, examination and appraisal coordination, payment processing and delivery coordination after customs procedures are complete.
Documents commonly required
Depending on the shipment and applicable regulations, import clearance may require original invoices, packing lists, bills of lading or airway bills, bank- or importer-endorsed bills where applicable, insurance certificates, purchase orders, letters of credit, import licences and product catalogues or technical literature for certain goods. Export clearance may require sales contracts, invoices, packing lists, shipping instructions and relevant export licences or permissions.
Always confirm the checklist
Exact requirements depend on commodity, customs procedure, origin, destination and current Kenyan regulations. Confirm the applicable checklist before shipment.
