Compliance

It’s all part of our company vision….….to help protect Australia’s border in alignment with trade modernisation whilst providing importers and their shipping agents with the most efficient and cost effective mechanism for declaring goods.

The SmartClear business model has been heavily inspired by Australian Customs blueprint for reform 2013-2018.

Common issues arise when utilising various transport providers and their in-house or nominated Customs Brokers.
