About Us
Who is FCBF?
The Florida Customs Brokers & Forwarders Association, Inc was founded
in 1960 by a handful of Miami brokers & forwarders. FCBF has since grown into
the most influential and active representative body of the Florida freight forwarding
and customs brokerage community. Through its numerous committees of volunteer professionals,
the FCBF represents our industry on matters that directly affect the trade arena.
It has been the commitment of FCBF to foster communications between the trade community
and the federal agencies in order to expand Florida’s trading communities at the
local, state, and national level. FCBF seeks to maximize the ability of the
State of Florida to effectively compete for international trade resources and to
minimize the barriers for its members. Through constant communication with various
state and federal agencies we help by participating in the development of international
trade policies.
Recently the FCBF offices were relocated the Miami Free Zone, which also houses
the CBP Seaport Operations (SCC) which in turns helps brokers by facilitating a
quicker turn around time for the processing of documentation. FCBF works closely
with the different governmental agencies to provide current and informative up-dates
and agency related policies that disseminate through the FCBF information highways.
