Imported Food Shipment Documentation Review

Review the documentation accompanying each shipment to confirm it matches what FDA and customs require before the product arrives. This helps catch missing or inconsistent paperwork before it causes a delay.

FDA Import Record Review

Review the records tied to your FDA entry filings to confirm they are accurate and complete. This reduces the risk of a hold or rejection tied to a documentation error.

Prior Notice & Entry Documentation Review

Confirm that prior notice filings and entry documentation are submitted correctly and on time for each shipment. Missing or late prior notice is one of the most common reasons shipments get held at the border.

Importer Recordkeeping Programs

Set up the recordkeeping system importers are required to maintain for FSVP and import compliance purposes. This keeps your records organized and ready if FDA requests them.

Supplier & Customs Broker Documentation Coordination

Coordinate documentation between your foreign suppliers and your customs broker so nothing falls through the gap between the two. This keeps everyone working from the same, accurate paperwork.

Import Compliance Gap Assessments

Review your current import documentation and processes to identify gaps against FDA and customs requirements. This gives you a clear list of fixes before a shipment gets flagged.

Nonconforming Imported Shipment Documentation

Document and manage the paperwork required when a shipment does not meet import requirements. This includes the corrective steps needed to resolve the issue or properly dispose of the product.

Regulatory Hold & Corrective Action Support

Respond to a regulatory hold with the documentation and corrective action FDA or customs requires to release the shipment. We help you move through the hold process as quickly as possible.

Claims Management

Manage the documentation and process for claims related to damaged, rejected, or noncompliant shipments. This helps you recover costs and keep clean records for future import activity.
