Customs Clearance

The seasoned experience of G.T.S, and the special advantages it offers to customers, rank it somehow apart in the world of transportation.

- G.T.S. is well regarded by the Lebanese Customs Authority for its legal transparency, and dutiful legal history.

- Consequently, we have had no Customs penalties incurred against us, nor against our clients due to our regular computerized monitoring of every aspect of the transportation process, and speeding up of legal Customs' clearance procedures.

- In addition, we enjoy an extensive experience in handling intact documentation issued by the Chambers of Commerce, Agriculture, and other Ministries, to be presented to Customs.
