    Thanks. Yeah that fee we all have to pay was supposed to cover the cost of FDA inspections but all trucks have to pay it. What a joke.

    The only thing I'll add, given the already posted excellent advice, is call anybody but Livingston for brokerage. ;)

    +1000 TO THAT! Except he won't have a choice unless he's shipping his own product.

    What about PIPS/PARS stickers?

    I know they go on the customs invoice but which one?

    Every page, if enough. Obviously don't cover up any info. If I have a shipment with lots of pages, I write the number on each one.

    They were replaced by the ACE and ACI manifests. If you create your own manifests you don't need the stickers. The manifest cover page has a a bar code on it. Just choose a shipment control number that includes your SCAC or CCCC. I still use PARS stickers but only because I bought them years ago and I'm using them up. I never had PAPS stickers. PARS was for going into Canada. PAPS was for going into US
