Emad, thank you. I…read morewas deep in the process of importing a car from Japan. I thought I could do all the customs and final clearance paperwork myself as I'm usually a pretty hands on guy. After looking through it and other peoples experiences with customs, I decided it was best to hire a professional to avoid penalties and delays. Only one issue- my car was landing in 3 days. I reached out to referrals from friends and called several other brokers who had NO interest in helping me because it was such short notice (you can receive fines and delays if not done timely and correctly.) Until I called Emad- he had no hesitation and assured me with 100% confidence there would be NO issues. I was a little skeptical, it sounded too good to be true, especially after my previous conversations with experienced vehicle custom brokers. But I didn't have much of a choice and decided to proceed. Emad was on it, quick. He immediately requested the necessary docs and followed up with the next steps right after. Through each stage he kept me informed, and told me what to expect next. Several times he was messaging me and/or updating me with new documents well past 6PM. I did not expect this attentiveness and deliberate sense of urgency from anybody, let alone someone who I had no prior relationship with. I have heard horror stories of cars getting caught up in customs for MONTHS and clients having to pay exorbitant storage fees to the port. This guy got my car full customs clearance before the ship even landed at the port!!! This allowed me to book the appointment and pick up the car immediately after it was unloaded without any issues whatsoever. A+ experience, will use again and will always refer to people who ask. Thank you Emad, keep up the great work.

I had an amazing experience working with David and his team at EMD Customs. I had imported a car…read morefrom Japan with very little to no knowledge of how customs clearance worked.

I was talking to Holly during this process, and she made sure the paperwork for the vehicle was handled correctly so I wouldn't have issues with the German customs agents. They picked up the car and showed me exactly how the tie-downs work inside the shipping container. It is a long wait for the ship to cross the Atlantic, but I received 3 different email updates during the transit time. My car arrived without a single scratch, and all my boxes were dry and secure. I am happy I hired them.

Every single piece was unpacked yesterday, and there is not a single crack or scratch.

I've been a loyal Meest customer for over 3 years, but this recent experience was extremely…read moredisappointing. I shipped an air package (tracking CV821430206US) on April 8, 2025, after a Meest representative assured me it would be delivered on time within 2 weeks. Instead, it arrived on May 19 - over a month late. According to the New York office, the original container arrived in Ukraine on April 17, 2025. However, there was an attempted theft involving 26-28 packages, including mine. My package was eventually found and only shipped nearly a month later, causing a huge delay. The package contained valuable personal items and a birthday gift, and the delay completely ruined the timing and meaning of the delivery. During the delay, I contacted Meest customer service multiple times. I was told the package was lost and under investigation, but LA office gave conflicting updates - one day it was found, the next day no one knew where it was. Promises of callbacks were never kept. I submitted several claims and emails, all ignored. I had to track the shipment myself with no real help. I also sent a formal complaint requesting a refund or discount, giving them 7 business days to respond, but I received no reply at all-not even an acknowledgment. To this day, Meest has offered no refund, no discount, and no apology for the delay, the poor communication, or the ruined delivery. If you're planning to send gifts or valuable items, please be very careful. Meest makes promises they don't keep, offers no accountability, and shows a complete lack of care for loyal customers.
