FDA customs clearance
Importing food, drugs, medical devices or cosmetics means clearing both CBP and the FDA. Niel Customs prepares the FDA data alongside your customs entry, with a licensed broker managing the process.
FDA and CBP in one entry
FDA-regulated goods need FDA product codes and Prior Notice submitted as Partner Government Agency (PGA) data with your customs entry. We prepare both together.
Catch FDA-regulated goods early
The platform flags commodities that are likely FDA-regulated from your product details, so nothing is missed and shipments are not held at the border.
Licensed-broker oversight
A licensed customs broker manages the FDA and customs entry and coordinates with you on any FDA questions, holds or exams.
For food, drugs, devices and cosmetics
Whether you import food, dietary supplements, pharmaceuticals, medical devices or cosmetics, the FDA data requirements are handled as part of the entry.
