Clearance desks
Each desk is built around one regulator and one set of documents, so pharmaceutical, seed, agrochemical, IT, machinery and dairy consignments are handled by people who clear that cargo every week.
How clearance works
Six steps that run in parallel wherever the rules allow, so the regulator approval and the customs entry are ready at the same moment.
We review the invoice, packing list, bill of lading, certificate of origin and bank instrument against the tariff heading and the Import Policy Order so nothing is discovered at the terminal.
Every consignment is classified under the Pakistan Customs Tariff and costed against the current duty, regulatory duty, sales tax and withholding position before the order is confirmed.
DRAP, DPP, PTA and PSQCA applications run alongside the customs entry so the release order and the Goods Declaration are ready together.
The Goods Declaration is filed electronically with every attachment, the assessment is checked against the estimate and duty is paid through the banking channel.
Our staff attend examinations at Karachi Port, Port Qasim and the airport cargo terminal and answer valuation or classification queries with the file already built to support them.
The delivery order is collected, the gate pass is issued before free days expire and the cargo moves to your warehouse anywhere in Pakistan.
Why importers choose ASC
Under the Customs Act 1969 every import is filed as a Goods Declaration on WeBOC and the Pakistan Single Window, but the declaration is only half the job. Most regulated cargo needs a prior approval from another government agency: a DRAP release order for medicines, a Plant Protection release order for seeds, a PTA certificate of compliance for wireless devices or food-standard conformity for dairy. Miss one and the goods sit at the terminal accruing demurrage until it is fixed.
We hold the expertise and the regulator relationships to get those approvals right the first time, classify accurately to protect your landed cost and keep the approval and the customs entry moving together. That is the difference between cargo that clears this week and cargo that waits.

Customs clearance FAQs
A licensed clearing agent classifies the goods, prepares and verifies the documents, files the Goods Declaration on WeBOC through the Pakistan Single Window, obtains regulator approvals such as DRAP, DPP or PTA, attends examination, pays duty and taxes on your behalf and arranges release and delivery from the port.
A correctly filed import with its regulator approval in hand is typically assessed and released within a few working days of arrival. Consignments missing a permit, a certificate of origin or a bank instrument wait until the gap is closed and start accruing storage after the terminal free days.
Medicines, devices and cosmetics need DRAP, seeds and agrochemicals need the Department of Plant Protection, telecom and wireless devices need PTA type approval and food and dairy need PSQCA or DAQ conformity. Our desks handle each of these alongside the customs entry.
The commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading or airway bill, certificate of origin where a preferential rate applies, the bank's Electronic Import Form, your NTN and sales tax registration, and any permit or licence the product requires. Our documents checklist article lists every item.
Yes. We file export Goods Declarations, coordinate phytosanitary, health and origin certificates, meet terminal cut-offs at Karachi Port and Port Qasim and build duty drawback and Export Facilitation Scheme claims into the filing.
