Top 5 Customs Clearance Agents in Malaysia
Why should you choose customs clearance agent services?
Malaysia is a key trade hub in Southeast Asia, with total imports and exports reaching RM2.7 trillion (approximately US$620 billion) in 2024. However, complex customs regulations, frequently updated HS codes, and rigorous inspection processes deter many businesses. According to the Royal Malaysian Customs Department, over 30% of imported goods are detained due to incorrect documentation or compliance issues, with an average delay of up to 7.2 days. Professional customs clearance agents can significantly mitigate these risks through accurate document processing, rapid tariff optimization, and strong relationships with customs officials. Leveraging its extensive industry experience and digital platform, TNSLOG offers one-stop services from document preparation to cargo delivery, ensuring a smooth supply chain.
