THE BORDER & CUSTOMS
 

Don’t have a logistics department? No experience working with US Customs? Tshirtguys experience and procedures make it easy.


Tshirtguys takes possession of the t-shirts, price tickets, boxes and all other raw material from a warehouse located in San Diego. The shipments south bound are consolidated. To cross the border going into Mexico we create a detailed import invoice. Tshirtguys creates the import invoice from the packing lists that are sent with the shipment to the warehouse in San Diego.

Packing list should have the following information listed on them:
  1. Fabric Content
  2. Country of origin per line item
  3. Piece count
  4. Box count
  5. Weight

In order to be efficient and keep transportation cost low our clients and vendors are advised to send goods palletized on pallets that are compliant with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).


When the shirts are done they are shipped back to the US. The importer of record is Tshirtguys.com which means that the responsibility of the importation falls on Tshirtguys. There are generally are no custom duties or additional taxes due for moving the shirts in and out of Mexico. The client can have the shipment delivered directly to their location in the San Diego area or it can be distributed from our Customs Brokers warehouse.

If the business is repetitive and the client is going to ship out of our customs broker’s warehouse the client can set up an account with the custom broker. The client is responsible for warehouse fees.

To summarize, Tshirtguys takes possession of the raw materials in San Diego at our broker’s warehouse. When the shirts are done the client takes delivery either at a designated drop off location in San Diego or at our customs broker’s warehouse in San Diego.
