How NGI approaches international freight

Global-looking coordination with broker-role discipline.

International freight can require multiple parties: shipper, consignee, motor carrier, rail/intermodal provider, ocean transportation intermediary, ocean carrier, air cargo provider, customs broker, warehouse, port, and government filing systems. NGI's role is to evaluate the transportation need, coordinate brokerage-supported portions, and connect or work with properly authorized providers for regulated segments.

Cross-border and offshore

Mexico, Canada, Puerto Rico, U.S. territories, island lanes, and port-connected shipments require document and carrier review before acceptance.

Import and export awareness

Commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, commodity classification, declared value, EEI/AES, and customs broker requirements may apply.

Mode-fit planning

NGI can help compare timing, service requirements, product type, freight value, equipment, handoffs, and receiving constraints.

Multimodal intake process

International and multimodal lanes must be reviewed before they are promised.

  1. 01

    Define the freight

    Commodity, dimensions, weight, value, origin, destination, consignee, Incoterms if applicable, and handling needs.

  2. 02

    Map the route

    Review truck, rail, port, ocean, inland waterway, air, warehousing, customs, and delivery handoffs.

  3. 03

    Confirm authority and documents

    Use appropriately authorized providers and confirm required filings or documents before service is represented.

Regulatory guardrails

International freight needs the right authority, documents, and provider chain.
