    You start contacting shippers, and booking loads. You know....go to work.
    Being "bonded", is just an accreditation. Tells possible customers that you're on the up & up, insured, etc... You STILL have to build a reputation, and trust.

    Your location says China. Are you interested in becoming a freight forwarder or customs broker, in global transportation? This forum mostly discuss domestic US truck transportation.

    You DO?? Being bonded is being sufficiently credit-worthy to have an underwriter supply you with a 75k bond. How do you plan on launching a brokerage for US freight while you are in China???

    Hello, yes customs brokerage and global freight forwarding are different than domestic freight brokerage. You will need to be licensed by US Customs & Border Protection agency and meet their requirements.
