Trade Sensitive Expertise

Trade Sensitive transactions are, by their nature, higher risk. They either require an added level of attention from regulatory agencies (Customs, FDA, EPA), or they require higher expertise, such as reconciliation or drawback entries, or those vertical industries identified by Customs And Border Protection as trade priorities. Because Alba Wheels Up has tremendous experience in this area, we offer you high quality education and service for these transactions.

Alba Wheels Up’s unique position as an industry leader gives the company a measurable advantage when discussing trade enforcement services, cargo security filings, technological capabilities, and customs clearance filings on behalf of importers and exporters.
