Customs broker provides expertise in the entry procedures and requirements to safely import our dogs to the U.S. Customs brokers are private individuals or businesses licensed, regulated, and empowered by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assist importers and exporters in meeting federal requirements governing imports and exports. Brokers submit necessary information and appropriate payments to CBP on behalf of their clients (in this case, our adopters) and charge a fee for this service. JLR has a partnership with a customs broker we recommend and use routinely, but we also allow adopters to find their own if they so choose.
The customs broker will need your driver’s license, a utility bill that verifies residency, your social security number, and a signed Power of Attorney form we provide. Verification of your identity is required by U.S. law to confirm the identity of the person receiving the dog.
The dogs’ Health Certificate and other required importation documents are submitted by JLR.
