Studied and passed the US Customs Brokers exam on the first try.
Hell yeah! Congrats!
Haha thanks. Itβs been a couple years now. BTW there is a Customs Broker community on Lemmy, the fact that you even know what Iβm talking about makes me think you work in the industry. Someone else started the community but Iβm the only person who seems to post in it.

I actually am not; I just assumed that a customs broker was someone who brokers customs transportation for goods & supplies, for international shipping and the like.
Am I incorrect?
You mostly got it! You help take care of all the Customs details for clearing goods across borders. Also with classifying goods (almost every country uses the Harmonized Tariff System) and other regulations. Not so much with the transportation side although there is often a lot of crossover.
