Customs Clearance Services - ACCB Customs Broker
What is customs clearance process?
Customs clearance is the process through which imported or exported goods are approved by customs authorities for entry or exit from a country. It involves a series of procedures and documentation to ensure that goods comply with local regulations, taxes, and duties.
Tumblr media
The customs clearance process typically includes the following steps:
Documentation: Importers or exporters must provide the necessary documentation to customs authorities, including invoices, packing lists, bills of lading, and certificates of origin. These documents help customs officials verify the nature, quantity, and value of the goods being imported or exported.
Customs Declaration: Importers or exporters must submit a customs declaration form, which provides detailed information about the goods being transported, their value, and other relevant details. This declaration is used by customs authorities to assess applicable duties, taxes, and regulatory requirements.
Examination: Customs authorities may inspect the goods to ensure that they comply with import/export regulations, safety standards, and other requirements. This may involve physical inspection of the goods or examination of accompanying documentation.
Assessment of Duties and Taxes: Customs authorities calculate the duties, taxes, and other fees applicable to the imported or exported goods based on their value, classification, and country of origin. Importers or exporters are required to pay these fees before the goods can be released from customs.
Release of Goods: Once all necessary requirements have been met and any applicable fees have been paid, customs authorities authorize the release of the goods. The goods can then be transported to their final destination within the country or exported to their intended destination overseas.
Post-Clearance Compliance: Importers or exporters may be required to comply with additional regulatory requirements after customs clearance, such as obtaining permits or licenses for certain types of goods, or providing additional documentation for record-keeping purposes.
The customs clearance process can vary significantly from one country to another, depending on local regulations and trade agreements. Importers and exporters often work with customs brokers or freight forwarders to navigate the complexities of customs clearance and ensure smooth movement of goods across borders.

Chapter 6: Causing Chaos
——————
Planet Amari was their next stop. It would take only four hours to get there and usually this would be no problem if they weren’t harboring a human. Let alone the human that had just escaped the Dream Team Ship.
Phil shook his head and focused on the increased security around the boarding docks.
Amair is a planet whose only purpose is to entertain, meaning they already have some of the best security in this part of the galaxy. The added security came directly from the ISF and were now searching suspicious ships.
“Check check, one two.” The microphone turned green, “As your captain it is my duty to warn you about extra security measures. The ISF is boarding ships and checking for abnormalities. Please complete protocol 35.0.” Phil spoke into the mic and waited for everyone’s confirmation.
He got up and started the process of taking maps and blueprints that were not available to the public along with future plans and hid them in a document compartment behind one of his shelves. He then changed his normal illusion monitor and changed it to the default screen.
He stepped out of the cabin and cleaned the surrounding area, while also checking for anything that could be confiscated.
“Tommy. In order to go onto the planet I need you to wear this.”Wilbur confronted.
“No! It looks like one of those serial killer masks!! My face is too beautiful to be hidden.” Tommy scoffed.
“Tommy if you don’t wear it willingly, I will tell Ranboo about-“ Wilbur was cut off by a series of curses and Tommy fiddling the mask around his face. “Good. Put this on too.” Wilbur handed the blonde a bundle of clothes and made his way to the lab. Phil chuckled at the brotherly bond that was already forming.
He made his way down to the lab checking for abnormalities before seeping back to the holding cell. The human was pulling at his clothes while packing things back into the shelf.
“Hello mate! Whatcha doing there?” Phil asked, casually. What he didn’t expect was the human to practically jump out of his clothes in the captain’s presence.
“W-who are you?” Tommy stammered, Phil had completely forgotten he had never introduced himself before.
“Oh! I forgot we haven’t formally met. My name is Captain Philza Mine Craft, but you can call me Phil or Philza, whichever you prefer. I use he/him pronouns and am the legal captain of the SBI Craft.” Phil finished his introduction with an easy confidence, even with the face mask you could easily see the kid’s wonder, “We are currently waiting for a formal check from the ISF.” The human tensed at that, “So if you would please follow me to the common room, so I may hide the holding cell.” The human nodded vigorously.
Once Phil had dropped Tommy off in the common room he made his way to the holding cell. With a few clicks and checks the holding cell made a perfect illusion wall, which molded it into the wall not to be seen by any inspectors or gadgets they may have.
Once he had gotten confirmations from all crew members, he made his way back to the pilot’s cabin. If they were even a minute slower with preparations, security would have deemed the ship suspicious.
They settled the ship at the checkpoint and waited for a security officer to signal them.
——————
Wilbur’s leg bounced anxiously as he wore his disguise. He had finished briefing Tommy about the plan. They would lie about their origins, Wilbur doing the talking, and would get what they needed and get out.
The only thing anyone was waiting on was the guard.
Almost on queue the door began to open and a young starling stood at the door. He seemed to be genetically engineered and had wires attached to his head and 3D glasses.
“Hello everyone! My name is Jack Manifold, and I will be checking your ship!” The starling chirped, “I hope you have both we have to confiscate, because everyone here seems like lovely people. I have to ask where is your captain?”
“Right here mate.” Philza said, stepping out of the pilot cabin. “I am Captain Philza Mine Craft, of the SBI Craft. Feel free to look around.” Phil said with a hint of impatience. Jack didn’t seem to notice and made his way around the Craft.
Everyone sitting in the common room shared a few nervous glances. The only one who seemed oddly comfortable was Tubbo.. Wilbur took note of the behavior and tried to busy himself with the magazine he was holding...
When did he get a magazine?
He was immersed in an article about room design when Jack returned.
“Everything seems to be in order! The only thing I ask is that everyone introduces themselves.” His tone turned serious as he looked at the crew.
“My name is Technoblade. I am the security officer on this ship and second in command.” Techno said without faltering in tone.
“I am Ranboo. I am Technoblade’s hired assistant and do most chores around the ship.” Ranboo said clearly anxious with the attention on them.
“Tubbo, I am a hired gardener and take care of food supplies and medical ingredients.” There was a coldness to Tubbo’s voice as he finished his introduction.
“Dr. Craft, I am a toxicologist. This is my medical student, Tommy, he doesn’t talk much.” There was a suspicious glint in Jack’s eye as Wilbur continued, “We have been working for this crew for two months, before that we were traveling on our own licensed craft.” Jack accepted the answer and finished checking his notepad off.
“Alright, that will be all then! Welcome to Amari! Once I give this report to my manager, you should be able to enter the atmosphere!” With that the cheery starling left the ship and Phil closed the door before disappearing into the pilots cabin.
To say Wilbur was relieved was an understatement.
——————
Things were falling into place.
Once they were on the planet all Tubbo would have to do is add the substance to one of Tommy’s drinks and he would be acting out in no time!
But is it worth it?
He pushed the thought out of his head and finished packing the small packet in his bag before getting off the ship with the rest of the crew.
“Before we head to the shopping center, why don’t we stop by Las Nevada’s? I mean it’s Tommy’s first time on Amari after all.” Tubbo said. Las Nevada’s is the most well known restaurant and casino in Amari. It was the perfect place for Tubbo to start his plan.
“I don’t see why not. Just stay in the restaurant bit, we don’t want to draw any more attention to ourselves.” Phil answered.
With that the group walked into one of the best and worst places in the city, though no one knew of the worst bit yet…
——————
They sat around a booth compartment. It had soft red padding and purple looking palm trees, without the coconuts.
It reminded Tommy of a stereotypical mafia restaurant. Something Tommy never got the privilege of seeing.
It made him very uncomfortable, especially when the waitress gave them drinks in glass cups. He felt like whatever he touched would instantly shatter into a billion pieces.
Techno was taking Ranboo to the bathroom and Phil and Will were talking to a waitress leaving only Tommy and the scary bee boy . alone.
“I told you I was done Miranda!!” A man shouted from a nearby table causing Tommy’s attention to be focused on the couple fighting.
“You had one job. And you failed it boy.” A man slapped his face.
He was in his third foster home again. They had asked him to get at least $50 from people on the subway, he had only managed to score $20, and the man was furious.
“You’re lucky I see potential, otherwise you’d be back in that goddamn group home.” Tommy’s eyes dropped yo the floor, another slap and a hand grabbing his chin to look at the man, “PAY ATTENTION TO ME BOY. I saved you from that hell hole and I can take you back.” The man sneered. Honestly Tommy would rather be there than here.
“Hey!” Wilbur snapped in front of his face, “You with us?” Tommy nodded. The couple was gone and everyone returned. Now Ranboo and Wilbur were sitting next to him and Tubbo was sitting next to Ranboo. Did bee-boy always look so guilty?
After a minute of awkward silence, Phil and Techno started talking, their voices drowned out by the surrounding noise. Wilbur had turned his attention to his menu and Ranboo was writing in his book again.
Tommy reached for his water and Tubbo turned his attention to the human. The mask he was wearing had a flap so he could easily breathe, eat, and drink. He took a sip of water….. was water supposed to be this sweet?
“Why the fuck would someone put sugar in water as a prank?” Tommy mumbled, everyone’s attention was on the human again, “What?” He asked defensively.
“Did you say sugar?” Wilbur asked as if it was the craziest thing he had ever heard.
“Umm… yea?” Tommy said. We’re these people pulling a prank on him? Why was everyone looking at him like that?
“Tommy, can you give me your water?” Wilbur asked, he was genuinely confused by the reactions. After a few seconds he gave his water to Wilbur who immediately took a sip and spit it out.
“What the fuck?!” Tommy asked as Wilbur gave him the water back.
“That is definitely sugar.. Tommy do you feel weird at all?” He asked.
“Erm no?” This was getting stranger and stranger.
“So humans are immune to sugar…” Will said as if it was a scientific breakthrough.
“Yea? Why wouldn’t we be?”
“Well for one, most species go absolutely crazy after eating sugar, for some it could lead to death.” Tubbo informed. He looked even more confused than Tommy felt.
“So like, aliens go psycho when they eat sugar? That’s lame.” Tommy laughed out the last line. Everyone looked at him with concerned glances, “I don’t think I am gonna go psycho after drinking a small bit of sugar water, I mean most people have been eating sugar their entire lives, me being one of ‘em.” Tommy finished and the underlying tension died down. Well except Tubbo’s which felt more like an angry glare meant to affect him in some way.
When the waitress came everyone gave their orders, Wilbur supplying Tommy’s. The rest of the meal was comfortable, with Phil telling stories and the rest supplying jokes and chatter, along with the occasional glare from Tubbo.
To be honest Tommy had never felt so comfortable around anyone before, he wanted so badly to let down his wall around these people. Still there was that annoying voice that told him not to trust them. For once he didn’t listen to it.
I mean what could go wrong?
——————
The plan failed. Shit.
Tubbo was mad. Not just mad, furious.
The others were having fun with the human, yet again. Tubbo had wandered off, he wanted to destroy everything, and yet he simply walked off without a second glance. He could feel the tears streaming down his face.
“Hello bee-boy!” The human scared the droneling, his ears falling flat against his head.
“I am not in the mood to talk.” Tubbo sniffed.
“Oh..” The human’s tone dropped, it was almost as if it was hurt by Tubbo’s words. “That’s alright big-man! We don’t have to talk.” The human settled with that response, with that the pair walked through the busy street in silence. Tubbo tried to throw the human off his trail but gave up after a few minutes.
After fifteen minutes of them wandering around Tubbo spotted a shop and made his way over to the electronic shop. The human followed him into the small store.
It was a small shop with tight isles and jazz music filling the silence. At the register a tall creeper hybrid fiddled with a redstone contraption. Tubbo paid no mind to him and turned his attention to some of the smaller devices scattered throughout the shop. The human shifted nervously behind him.
Once Tubbo found what he was looking for he took it over to the register. Another man stood behind it along with the original one. His eyes shifted to Tommy.
“Are you sure that’s him?” The original man asked, his name tag reading Sam.
“Yes, positive. Dream will be happy with this.” The other man replied, he stretched one of his fingerless black gloves and turned towards the pair. “Hi. I am assuming you have my boss’s patient?” The black hair man asked. He was a blazeling and had a cruel glint to his eye.
Without warning another man came up behind them and slapped a cloth over both of their faces. Within seconds the pair was out and everything went black.
He woke up in a cage.

 WAYS TO IMPORT IN U.S
Basic import process that importers should know.
1. DO I NEED A CUSTOMS BROKER?
Customs clearance likewise usually alluded to as Customs release is presumably the main interesting point. Contingent upon the value of your shipment you need to decide whether a Customs broker company is required. For shipments esteemed under $2,500 USD, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will ordinarily permit the products to go into the U.S. under a casual entry. Nonetheless, in situations where the merchandise are managed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), or if the products fall under Anti-Dumping or Countervailing obligations, quantity, or other confined merchandise, these merchandise require a proper section and don't fit the bill for this exception. On the off chance that an entry is required you need to have a record set up with a Customs Broker company and documentation arrange prior to shipping.
2. PREPARE 4 IMPORT DOCUMENTS.
Commercial Invoice - A Commercial Invoice ought to give sufficient data to the U.S Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Officers to decide whether the wares being imported are acceptable. The business receipt is utilized for foreign exchange.
Packing List - This list is provided by Shipper or Freight forwarder.
Bill of Lading - This could be given by a carrier to the shipper of merchandise, endorsed by the proprietor of the vessel, or the captain or specialist who gives written documentation with respect to the receipt of the FDA managed items.
Arrival Notice - The arrival notice is a correspondence that is prepared/set up by a carrier or specialist to tell the beneficiary or representative that the shipment of FDA managed items has shown up.
3. PAY THE IMPORT DUTIES AND TAXES FEES
Duty rates are expenses that are paid to CBP. Duty rates depend on the arrangement of the items that are entering the U.S. The IOR is answerable for paying these charges. Your Customs Broker Company has the position to pay the duty fees on your behalf and receipt you for them or set up a computerized clearing house represent you to pay the duty straightforwardly to U.S. Customs.
4. DETERMINE CORRECT HTS - HARMONIZED TARIFF SCHEDULE
Items that enter the U.S. are classified/arranged by the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States. Merchandise are set in an item group called classification, the number used to characterize the item is commonly referred to as a Harmonized Tariff Schedule or HTS number. The grouping number is 10 digits and that number decides the fee of duty that will be applied to your item. U.S. Customs has an online variant of the most current HTS codes accessible.
 CUSTOMS CLEARING
Having wrong person handling your customs brokerage can be tricky. Shipping containers are warehoused as they go through customs clearance. Warehousing and storage expenses can add up rapidly. In the event that there is an issue with your customs broker company and your customs clearance doesn't go through easily, your shipping expenses could go up by hundreds to thousands of dollars. On top of these expenses, the deferral in getting your containers/products released to you due to customs clearance issues could cost your business more cash on the grounds that the arrival of your shipment is postponed.

Past of the future, future of the past...
Chapter 8. The sky's not the limit.
Author's warning: a suicide is attempted in this chapter. Proceed at your own risk. If computer systems could've been bored, the avionics of the "Hauler" would've been bored for sure. For more than a day, it was slowly doing small burns here and there, carefully deorbiting after having been unloaded, while also trying to evade space debris. Despite being impacted at several points already, automatics deemed the damage acceptable and went on with soft landing program, instead of simply deorbiting craft in they way it will burn and break apart. Right now, as Rayquaza was no longer of any concern and Minior posed not much more danger than debris - even less so, in fact, as they were actively trying to avoid collisions. Back on Earth, not too far away from Zemlino, recovery forces stood by, waiting for the cargo ship to land, so it can be brought back to Space Center for turnaround procedures, much like rocket stages of the "Water Dragon" would be in mere hours. Heat shield, parachutes, gas bags - all landing systems were still green and data meteorology stations was showing, that everything was within acceptable parameters for the landing and recovery. But right now, the ship still had to orbit Earth two more times… ---- "So… what do you think of it?" asked the captain of the "Red Explorer" everyone else, who was currently present in the mess hall in the centrifuge. "The more I think of it, the more it hits me, just what kind of a thing we've done - we've killed Rayquaza, a being millions of years old, who has controlled the skies for many eons." "And?" asked him the engineer. "Well… I mean, it's been around much longer, than humanity. Our actions has removed it out of play and, if data from ISF 9 and Hoenn locals is to be believed, there are two more players in there - Groudon and Kyogre. And with no Rayquaza to keep them in check…" "We may have to," said the pilot. "I mean, even excluding the retro-missiles, we can use solid-core railgun ammunition for orbital bombardment!" "With crappy precision and power," replied the sensors operator. "Atmosphere won't be gentle to it." "Even so…" muttered the captain, then assumed a bit more relaxed position in the chair. "I hope they'll be able to figure something out, back on Earth…" --- "And here our babies are," muttered technician in the Imperial Gray Sea Starport, seeing recovered stages of the "Water Dragon" being towed towards drydock for repair and later reuse, with a few curious Alolan Flygon in Rainy forms flying/swimming around them, as "buzzers" on the ships were now disabled. "Seems like everything went perfectly." "Indeed," replied the engineer nearby. "Just like the previous time." "Which one of previous times exactly?" asked him technician. "The original delivery of landers, docking block and Power and Propulsion Module to the Space Lab 1 to make it into the ship for the Imperial Moon Mission? The missions to build Space Lab 2?" "All of them, starting with the test flights with recovery system installed." "I guess. Kinda shame, that the early missions for delivering satellite constellations had to be only partially reusable, with only engines saved…" "Agreed. Well, they've almost got the stages there, so, time to get to work!" --- As the morning came to the eastern parts of Soris, the Emperor, still stationed in Zemlino Space Center, prepared for something truly special. Dressed in a strict suit, more fitting for a spokesperson of the space agency, rather than royalty, he, nonetheless, appeared to be concentrated, confident and serious. Right now, he was about to give the most important speech in his life so far. When the time came, he entered the conference room and walked onto the scene, under the gaze of cameras. "My dear sorisians, good morning," started the Emperor, sounding far more serious, than ever before. "I want to tell you something… Back before the Shift, when I was a young boy, one of the court's elite engineers and entertainers has constructed the first ever liquid-fueled rocket, which worked on kerosene and hydrogen peroxide. Even then, rockets have already fascinated me, but solids didn't have quite the same impact as this one did. When I first heard the roar of the turbopump, installed on the test stand, when I saw the assembled rocket blast off… I knew, that nothing would be the same for me from this day hence." "Because of that, when I've become the Emperor, I chose to, instead of trying to conquer the rest of the world, set our sights a bit higher and start conquering skies and, later, space." "And look, where did that get us. Even back then, while the rest of the world had to rely on the Pokemon to attempt to traverse the skies, we did so via comfortable machines, more advanced than anything would be in millennia to come. Even now, our nuclear airships are unmatched." "When the rest of the world had to rely on Castform at most and signs normally for predicting weather, we've had meteorological satellites for that. When bulk lifting was unachievable for them, we've used our helicopters and airships for that. When they've had to risk their men and Pokemon to get high-altitude observations, we've had satellites for that." "A lot of our technological achievements can be traversed back to the space program and the applications program for it. Even the TVs you are watching my speech with have a lot of components, derived from the space program." "For many years, we were exploring space. I remember, how happy I was, when we've managed to put the first satellite into orbit. I remember my ecstasy, when I've managed to quietly replace pilot of the SP-04 "Black Bird" with myself for the first mission and has become the first human in space." "For years and years, we were putting more and more satellites into orbits. We've also put men there - first in small spaceships, then in the Proof-Of-Concept Stations, then in the Space Labs… And when Rayquaza, without any warning, has destroyed our satellites, along with Space Lab 2 and LRV-03 with 12 cosmonauts onboard… We've turned our shock and grief into first resentment, then hatred and then - innovation." "Nowadays, there's a huge nuclear pulse battleship, which, currently, is stationed in orbit of the Moon, serving as a deterrent to any aggressor, who may think of attacking the Empire. In addition to that, as researches in the Space Lab 2 and ISF 5 have shown, some normally-terminal diseases can be treated in the microgravity." "As you've seen, aerospace industry was a great part of why our Empire was so successful. Because of that, I want to announce the Integrated Program Plan - our ticket into future. By the end of this year, we will clean the orbits a bit, partially restore the satellite constellations and, once again, have an operational space station, bigger and more advanced, than Space Lab 2. By the end of the next year, the first dedicated orbital hospital will be opened. By the end of third year, the first industrial-grade orbital factories will go operational. By the end of fourth year, the satellite constellations will be completely restored and we will have the Moonbase. By the end of fifth year, we will perform an expedition to the Red Planet. By the end of sixth year, more orbital factories and hospitals will be brought into operation. By the end of first decade of IPP, the assembly of the space colony in the libration point L5 will begin. By the end of the second decade, the colony will be brought into operation. Of course, there might be slips… but all of it will be achieved." "The Earth is a cradle of mankind… but one cannot eternally stay in the cradle. We should remember, what have we already achieved, and go on towards the future. The achievements of yesterday are commendable, but it's the achievements of today, which are truly impactful. Stay strong, my fellow imperials, and together, we will conquer the space!" ---- William Steelman, the president of Unova, didn't feel well. In fact, the entirety of the last year, especially the months after the so-called "Shift", was a major clusterbomb of problems. Especially when those damn Sorisians launched their damned space warship and demonstrated how they can use it against planetary targets. Especially when they've demonstrated the feasibility of nuclear weapons - something, that he had supported defunding back during the war with Hoenn and Kanto, before his presidency. Especially when he has also supported defunding the space program, considering it a waste of tax money, which could've been spent on more PokeCenters, hospitals, shelters and so on. And now, after this damned speech of this damned Emperor of this damned Soris Empire, he had no idea, what to do. And Sorisians announcing and giving a TV report about recovering all parts of their gigantic "Water Dragon" rocket, including the heavy cargo spacecraft, for a bit of repair and reuse soon after, was making things even worse, given the current-day situation with launch vehicles in Unova. And, what was the truly worst about it all, is that a decent part of the reason for Unova ending up so behind Soris Empire was his own fault. Even when he was defunding UASA and allowed them to lease the Space Shuttles to the rest of the world (mostly Hoenn), he only did it to free up tax money and spend it on social programs, to help everyday Unovans… and then it turned out to be a doom to Unova in the long term, unless some miracle saves them. And even nuclear industry of Unova wasn't in the really good condition, when compared to the Soris Empire… though, at least, he has helped to progress the molten salt reactors, which worked on relatively cheap and abundant thorium… But what's use in all this, if Soris Empire continues the conquest of space and, surely, builds more space battleships and weapon platforms, until they can keep the entire world compliant to their terms, lest the orbital bombardment with nuclear weapons commence?! William opened a drawer of his table. In it, alongside some old-type Pokeballs, which he kept from his League days, original ebonite knobs included, there was a familial heritage - a revolver, made by his gunsmith grandfather, along with a speedloader from the same maker and a small box of ammo. While the firearms were never too widespread in Unova, as Pokemon were almost always just as good and far more versatile, they've still had their niches and customers. Steelman took the revolver in his hands, looked at it, reflecting on the engraved writing and overall beauty of the weapon, then placed it on the table. He grabbed the speedloader and started putting cartridges into it, while thinking of what he has done in his life. After he was done, he used the speedloader to reload the revolver in one swift motion, just like during his time with father on the shooting range. William took the revolver in his hands, opened his mouth and inserted the gun's barrel into it, until it was touching the palate. He cocked the hammer, closed his eyes… and put the gun back on the table. He was the reason Unova was inadequately prepared to deal with the Soris Empire now. "Easy way out" was nothing but a cowardice of the highest level. He will be the one, who atones and fixes those mistakes or, at least, does his best to. As Steelman was unloading the revolver and putting everything back in place, his mind was racing, combing the memory for the project UASA has previously shown to him, what they've promised and how much money will they need to be done. He had work to do. A lot of it. And, maybe - just maybe, - he'll succeed in this endeavour. Even if it will require cooperating with all other member states of the Pokemon Nation. --- Around Zemlino Space Center, as always, there was a lot of work. Just as the recovered "Hauler", moved on the crawler, was rolled into one hangar, from another, a vessel emerged. It was a spaceplane - a sleek, delta-winged one, with boxy engines underneath the fuselage bringing those of "Dreamwing" to mind… and some of them were pretty similar, also being hydrogen-fueled scramjets. Others, however, were not, for they were not scramjets, but nuclear turboramjets. Inside the cockpit, two test pilots were checking everything. As this spaceplane was powered by the nuclear reactor, they've had to be very careful. Even though reactor was built to withstand low supersonic impacts, wrecking such an advanced vessel was… undesirable. "Zemlino, this is Bluebird-1, all systems green, running on batteries. Towing truck at safe distance, requesting permission to start the reactor," said the commander, hovering his hand over one of the covered buttons. "Bluebird-1, this is Zemlino, permission to start the reactor granted. Take off when ready." After receiving those words, commander flicked the cover open and pressed the "START 1" button. Far behind two humans, several control rods were retracted, allowing the chain fission reaction to start and get into high gear soon, heating up the hydrogen coolant, while the turbine pumps were revving up to ensure normal circulation of coolant through the entire system, including the heat exchanger on the outside. As the temperature continued to rise, electric motors inside the turboramjet assembly kicked in, revving up the turbines to get the air going through the heat exchanger and start up the turboramjets proper. "So far, so good," muttered the second pilot, observing the data on the MFD. Right now, the thrust has reached sufficient level to allow pilots to begin taxi to the runway, preparing for the takeoff. As much as they've wanted the Bluebird-1 to go to space today, alas, it was not an option - their test program was limited to some supersonic and hypersonic flight to test the engine assembly, then a bit of maneuvering to test the structure. As the vessel took off from the runway and the landing gear retracted, commander looked to the side and saw a "Whitebird" spaceplane, a recently-built unmanned cousin of the "Dreamwing", getting launched to deploy a satellite of sort and later retrieve it. There were rumors, that this satellite was supposed to house some kind of weaponry… but, most likely, they were just rumors. Author's notes: MFD - Multi-Function Display. BLUEBIRD spaceplane is based on the real M(G)-19 "Gurkolyot". Alolan Flygons are based on that wonderful picture. Hopefully, this chapters will be one of the last, so focused on the worldbuilding. Anyway, by the chapter ten, I will do my best to make story enter the more Pokemon route.

Importing A Car From Japan to USA - What Documents Do You Need?
It is the fact that Japanese automobiles are amazing. not only are they highly durable but also very innovative. For that reason, JDM enthusiasts around the world try to import both new and used Japanese cars into their countries. And the USA is the one of those.
With a vehicle that is older than 25 years old, you can skip all the expensive import tests. Yes that is correct, if the vehicle you are about to import is 25 years old or more, drivers can take a shortcut and pass all the regulations of the USA with no problem. All you have to do is to have the following documents in hand when importing the car:
1. Bill of Lading (BL) from the shipping company.
This is a document issued by the shipping company. The bill of Lading (BL) not only has the car recipient and description but also makes sure the car is shipped out.
2. Invoice written in English
This is a payment request from the car company to the customers. Car owners must check this to make sure it is written in English.
3. Importer Security Filing (ISF) form.
With the US new rule, car owners must fill the “Imported Security Filing (ISF) form” prior to the car arrival by vessel to have the car imported.
4. Export certificate (one original and one translated)
This is a document that makes sure the car is being exported from Japan legally. The document also means that the car has been de-registered in Japan from its previous owner. Remember to bring 1 original form and one english version of the original export certificate, for your local use.
Nevertheless, there are two exceptions to the US rule.
First of all, California has stricter laws on emissions. Car owners need to get a certification in the state even when the car is released more than 25 years and legally imported into the US. Or else, car owners cannot drive that car on the California roads.
Second of all, while the federal law allows all cars which are older than 25 years old imported into the United States, there are rules of the state that need to be considered. Along with that, many states in the US require basic safety car components and features. Seatbelt is one of them.
Long story short, importing a car from Japan to the USA is a piece of cake. Drivers just need to find cars that are older than 25 years old, select the right ports and have the paperworks. Car owners can find even help from reliable online platforms such as Car From Japan or JDM Export if you have trouble with the process.
So what if you want a car that is newer than 25 years old? Is it alright to import to the US? The answer is yes. However, it must be subjected to the EPA regulations and federal DOT. And to be honest, it is a tough job to average guy, but here are the required documents in case you are interested:
DOT Form HS-7: Department of Transportation (DOT) form needed to be downloaded and filled all the required fields. In order to complete this form, car owners need to know all basic car information about vehicle model, vehicle make, date of entry and port of entry. Along with registered importer details, there are all you need to acknowledge in order to import a car from Japan to the USA.
EPA Form 3520-1: Just like DOT form, drivers can obtain the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) form online. The same with DOT form, car owners must know all the basic vehicle’s information: car status, car model, car use, and independent commercial importer (ICI)
CBP Form 7510: Apart from the other two, the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) can only be obtained at a port. All the requirements to complete this form are: (1) A completed DOT form HS-7. (2) A completed EPA form 3520-1; (3) Manufacturer’s certification ( must state that the imported automobile fully follows to the standards set by DOT and EPA); (4) Proof of car ownership.</p>

Importing products from China to the U.S.? FashionTIY summarized the best 4 shipping method guides for you!
Question 1: How to choose a suitable courier company for yourself, and what is the delivery time of each different courier company?
In the following form, you will see a comparison of the shipping costs and time from China to the U.S. between the three major courier companies.
In general, FedEx is the first choice for express services, because it provides IP and IE services to meet different needs, and it excels in delivery time control.
DHL is a cheaper courier company on the market. But shipping time control is not as good as FedEx. Sometimes there are delays and the delivery time is later than expected. However, if you don’t mind waiting for another 2 to 3 days, you will enjoy the benefit of cheaper shipping.
Tumblr media
But you may have another worry, such as: "If the product I purchased is cheap, but the cost of express delivery is actually higher than my purchase cost, what should l do?" The good news is that there is a miracle express service called USPS, which is very cheap, but you need to wait about 15-25 days (official time only.) to receive the package. However, this low-cost service has its own limitations. For example, the packaging can only be up to 2kg, and the packaging size is also limited. 
Question 2: When should I use Air Cargo? How about the shipping time?
Air Cargo is suitable for shipping products that meet the following two important requirements:
1.The high value of products.
2. You don't want to wait a long time.
However, the lifting standard of Air Cargo is 500 kg. If it is less than this standard, the shipping cost will not be much different from the use of courier service, and the delivery time will be longer.
Tumblr media
What is the process of using Air Cargo?
1.Your Chinese supplier needs to send products from the factory to the Airfreight company warehouse (0.5 days).
2.Airfreight company arranges cargo handling and customs declaration (1-2 days).
3. From China to the United States (1-2 days).
4. Customs clearance in the United States (1-2 days).
5. Inland shipping to your delivery address (2-3 days).
The above time is only an estimate, about 5-7 days, just for reference. The time may vary according to different situations. For example, if China ’s customs declaration is delayed, it may cause the flight schedule to be suspended, thereby affecting the entire delivery time.
Question 3: How to ship containers by Sea Cargo, and how long is the shipping time?
The process of container shipping is not as difficult as you think. You can apply for a specific container shipping by following the steps below.
Tumblr media
1. Check shipping costs with 2 to 3 agents in the US. Ask them to quote by breakdown, such as freight / US customs clearance/inland shipping.
2. Ask your supplier to check the shipping costs in China for you so that you can compare prices and bargain with US agents if necessary.
3. If your Chinese supplier provides you with FOB prices, they will need to comply with the local costs in China, such as local shipping in China/customs declaration in China / local costs for shipping companies.
4. The shipping company will release the container 7 days before the shipping date. For example, if the shipment date is May 15, the factory may be required to start loading containers from May 8.
5. Complete the Chinese customs declaration before the CY closing date.
6. Containers destined for the United States also need to submit ISF 10 + 2 filed. Please ask your supplier to complete it on time (the deadline is usually similar to the CY closing date).
7. The products have been loaded on board and arrived in the United States within 15 to 30 days
8. The U.S. Customs clearance
9. Finally, the US inland shipping will ship it to your delivery address.
Question 4: How does joint shipping work?
The “Airfreight+ UPS” and “ Seafreight+ UPS”(LCL Shipment)
Airfreight + UPS
We also mentioned Air Cargo, some suppliers provide Airflight service + UPS delivery. If your cargo weighs between 100--200 kg, and you feel that the express delivery cost is too high, then this mode of transportation is undoubtedly the best. In this way, the supplier will collect enough cargo for air flight, and then use courier services to distribute the cargo across the United States. Therefore Airfreight + UPS is 3-5 days slower than Air Cargo, but this method of shipping will save you costs.
Tumblr media
Seafreight +UPS
Smart suppliers don't provide FCL (Full Container Load) shipping but provide LCL (Less than Container Load) + UPS services to expand the business.
The key point here is that joint shipping will start from the shipping from China to the United States, and will be distributed by UPS to your delivery address. Compared with Seafreight, this method saves you a lot of shipping costs from China to the United States. And achieve a time difference of 10 days. Therefore, Seafreight +UPS is particularly suitable for large orders and professional wholesaler, which not only can reduce costs, but also ensure the effective arrival of products.
Other factors affecting shipping time and cost
Severe weather and natural disasters
For example, in early 2020, COVID-19 swept across countries, and global logistics was almost paralyzed. Courier companies were unable to operate normally for a while, which seriously affected shipping prices and time.
Some major festivals
Secondly, there are some major festivals in China and the United States, such as the Chinese spring festival and Christmas in the United States. With the long vacations, the high-intensity operation of logistics companies has led to increased shipping costs and longer shipping times.
So the best strategy is to arrange your cargo transportation before the holidays as much as possible.

Isf Customs Filing - ACCB Customs Broker
How long does the ISF filing process take?
The ISF filing process typically requires importers to submit the necessary information to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) at least 24 hours before the cargo is loaded onto a ship bound for the United States or a foreign trade zone.
Tumblr media
It is important to note that the responsibility for filing the ISF lies with the importer, but they can also rely on customs brokers or authorized agents to handle the filing process on their behalf.
The time it takes to complete the ISF filing process can vary depending on factors such as the availability of the required information and the efficiency of the filing method used. According to one source, it usually takes 48 to 72 hours to gather all the necessary information and compile it correctly for the ISF.
However, it is advisable to request the relevant information from manufacturers and other partners at least a week before the goods are shipped to allow sufficient time for the filing process.
It is worth mentioning that importers have the option to amend their ISF at any point between filing and when the cargo arrives at a U.S. port. This allows for any necessary changes or updates to be made without the need to delete and refile the form.
In summary, the ISF filing process typically requires importers to submit the necessary information to the CBP at least 24 hours before the cargo is loaded onto a ship bound for the United States or a foreign trade zone. The time it takes to complete the filing process can vary, but it is advisable to request the relevant information at least a week before the goods are shipped to allow sufficient time for gathering and compiling the required information

9. Finally, the US inland shipping will ship it to your delivery address.
Question 4: How does joint shipping work?
The “Airfreight+ UPS” and “ Seafreight+ UPS”(LCL Shipment)
Airfreight + UPS
We also mentioned Air Cargo, some suppliers provide Airflight service + UPS delivery. If your cargo weighs between 100--200 kg, and you feel that the express delivery cost is too high, then this mode of transportation is undoubtedly the best. In this way, the supplier will collect enough cargo for air flight, and then use courier services to distribute the cargo across the United States. Therefore Airfreight + UPS is 3-5 days slower than Air Cargo, but this method of shipping will save you costs.
Tumblr media
Seafreight +UPS
Smart suppliers don't provide FCL (Full Container Load) shipping but provide LCL (Less than Container Load) + UPS services to expand the business.
The key point here is that joint shipping will start from the shipping from China to the United States, and will be distributed by UPS to your delivery address. Compared with Seafreight, this method saves you a lot of shipping costs from China to the United States. And achieve a time difference of 10 days. Therefore, Seafreight +UPS is particularly suitable for large orders and professional wholesaler, which not only can reduce costs, but also ensure the effective arrival of products.
Other factors affecting shipping time and cost
Severe weather and natural disasters
For example, in early 2020, COVID-19 swept across countries, and global logistics was almost paralyzed. Courier companies were unable to operate normally for a while, which seriously affected shipping prices and time.
Some major festivals
Secondly, there are some major festivals in China and the United States, such as the Chinese spring festival and Christmas in the United States. With the long vacations, the high-intensity operation of logistics companies has led to increased shipping costs and longer shipping times.
So the best strategy is to arrange your cargo transportation before the holidays as much as possible.

“Humans are [Insert text here]”
Chapter 1: Idiots kidnap the wrong kid..
Honestly, life hasn't been bad. His needs were met, most of the time, and he had a.. place to sleep…
Yeah no life wasn’t great.
Tommy was easily, barely, avoiding Social Services. Sleeping on benches and occasionally grass. He got whatever wasn’t wanted and had an official bag for the first time. He had some spare clothes, and no money. The authorities stopped looking for him after a while and the only main challenge was getting essentials.
No one would miss him. No one would look for him. Therefore he was the perfect target among many others. The only thing setting him apart was his sheer ability to survive, not a want, like many of the others, it was a fact he would survive. Not that his captors knew that of course.
Alternative: Tommy gets kidnapped by aliens and sbi rescues him.
——————
He woke up in a cage.
Not a cell or a room, a fucking cage.
There were a few others in various cages around the room. All of which were either dead or close to it. Most of the ones still alive had been there for months, possibly years. No one knew of course.
The smell of rotting bodies stenched the place with a coppery coating. The room wasn’t large but not quite small. It was dull grey with layers of grime settling on the floor and cages. The room was long and skinny, lined with cages against either wall in a zig zag format. The only light was coming from the small door window, which happened to be positioned right in front of Tommy. It glowed a faint yellow and was blurry, not allowing Tommy to see into the hall.
Shadows would occasionally pass by the window. None ever stopped at it. Causing the ever growing hunger to grow more. Once one had stopped at the door, not for more than a second, before it screeched. It was inhuman and sounded like a hurt hawk from one of those nature documentaries. Tommy shoved his hands onto his ears and waited for it to stop. The thing chuckled, not like a human, but something close to it.
——————
Tommy waited for what seemed like hours before something happened. The door opened, sliding into the ceiling. A weird looking creature stepped in. It looked like it had a porcelain mask over its face with a painted smiley face. There were no ears or hair, instead just more porcelain, which formed a spear which sat on shadows. The thing was wearing a lime green hoodie and black leather pants that seemingly faded into the creature's legs. The knees bent inwards causing it to look awfully awkward as it crouched near Tommy’s cage. The hands were long and lanky with no real palm. The creature also had a tail that looked close to how Tommy pictured a devil's tail to look. This was the first time in ages Tommy was glad to be behind bars.
The thing pointed at itself and said,
“Dream.”
In the most heavily accented English Tommy had ever heard. That didn’t matter as much of the fact that the seemingly painted smile moved with the words.
“Come.”
The creature unlocked the cage and half dragged Tommy out of the cage into what Tommy presumed to be the lab. He noticed a window. The only thing for miles was stars. He was in space. He had been kidnapped by Aliens. Fuck.
——————
Humans were a heavily avoided species. The things were what kids would expect to come out of their closet. They were feared, and for good reason.
The first ship to find Earth was ecstatic. Finding another intelligent species in what would’ve been deemed as a planetary desert was a scientific breakthrough. Causing the entirety of the media to go insane for a couple of years.. That was until the first ship ventured onto the planet. It was immediately shot down. The entire crew was killed and the entirety of the ship was destroyed in a matter of minutes. The ISF (Intergalactic Safety Force) deemed it as a no flight zone and claimed to punish anyone in the desert. Even so poachers smuggled humans and within days had their ship crashed.
The only ones allowed to take humans were scientists, who were specialized in taking care of difficult species. They were allowed to test on said species and do whatever they wanted, in the name of science of course. Most people didn’t care how they treated them and were really only interested in what could kill them.
Which is where Wilbur came in. He was a toxicologist, a scientist studying poisons, he also dealt with various potions and other chemical mixes. This knowledge is what gained his entry to the Dream Team Ship.
He had been testing on around nine different humans for the past six months on the celestial calendar. This time Dream, his boss and the captain, brought in a juvenile human. He was skinny and lanky. Clearly had been starving before being taken. He felt bad before shaking off his pity.
“V74 and V83. Make sure he can communicate beforehand.” Dream promptly stated before leaving the kid in the room.
Wilbur tried not to think about his terrified face, before he clipped on the translator. Usually it is worn on the back of the head, since humans brains are vastly different than most species, it is clipped to the left side of the head.
The translator looks like a simple device when in reality it took dozens of celestial years to perfect it. It’s a small silver disk that ingrains into the part of the brain that controls communicating. After the body gets used to the device it can translate any language into one you understand instantly.
It took a couple more years for the translator to incorporate the estimated 7,000 languages spoken on Earth. For a planet that has been isolated it has a more complex and diverse set of cultures and languages, than Pellucidian has had in centuries. To say Wilbur was jealous, wouldn’t be far from the truth. Not that he studied cultures for a living. It was something that always interested him.
He put the device on the kid’s head and grimaced at the pain that was on the kid’s face. He quickly dried up the blood and mixed a solution that would ease the pain. It was clear and tasted like water, which is the only way they got humans to take the pain reduction.
The kid relaxed for a spilt second before tending at the unfamiliar setting.
“Where am I?” He snapped, causing Wilbur to jump back a bit, before collecting himself and standing up.
“The Dream Team craft’s labatory.” The kid’s face flashed with panic for a split second, “You have two testings scheduled for today. It will go quickly.”
“Will it be painful?” The kid asked. As standard for testing, Wilbur ignored the question and measured the substances. He quickly cleaned the puncture spot before giving him the needle.
The kid winced in pain. Wilbur swiftly led him to the testing chair. It had restraints that moved with the patient's body, which prevented bruising while keeping them in place. Wilbur clicked them on and sat at the desk located to the left of the kid.
“What did you inject into me?” The kid asked clearly trying to fight off the anesthetic.
“A dosage of Lidocaine, which is an anesthetic for your species. It’s only to numb pain that may come with the solutions we will be using today.” The kid’s face flashed with a deeper panic than before, causing Wilbur to tense. “We won’t start yet, since we have a list of questions to go through before we begin.” Wilbur lied. He hated testing people, especially kids. Dream of course didn’t care, like the rest of the Dreamon species. It made him sick. That was when he made a split second decision. Hoping he could get a distress signal out, without alerting the other crew members. He was gonna get the kid off the ship, at the next stop of course. Which was in three celestial hours.
The kid scoffed, clearly not believing the lie. He paused a moment thinking over his options before he smirked,“Fine. Ask me what you want bitch-boy!” Wilbur gasped, clearly not anticipating the insult.

Before we rp!!
//’Ello, Admin here! before we start the rp with the cousins, there are some headcannons and guidelines. //The cousins/fanbots will do; NSFW i.e. gore, trigger warnings, swearing etc (Language/cussing is tagged as #Silver Tongues (NSFW love stuff is #lusty but not rusty (Trigger warnings is #Malfunction!! (Gore is #oil a-flowing Fluff! (tagged #on top of the universe Family Scenarios (tagged #Walter Clan) Romance, whether it’s bxb or gxg or bxg (tagged #Robo-romance Any info about their past (Especially with Sprocket) (tagged #Backstory Angst (tagged #steam powered angst They will RP with SPG fans as well as cross-over with other worlds (tagged #Part Of That World, if a crossover is in place) Fanart is allowed to be posted of them or, if the creator allows it, will be shared. Own art is tagged #Scrapheap Scrapbook Other people’s art is tagged #Ju-Ju Magic They //and I// will NOT do: Sexualized vore of any kind DEFINITELY no rape! Incest of any kind. ABSOLUTELY NO SHIPPING THEM WITH ANY OF THE OTHER WALTER BOTS!! OR EACH OTHER!! They will cuss but do not go overboard, and avoid using any offensive words to race or gender. Scenarios where the cousins are permanently shut down :(
Anyone who does not follow these rules will immediately be unfollowed, blocked and the post deleted. Headcannons Sprocket and Dex are ‘cousins’, and I tend to RP the fanbots with other robots as family i.e. ‘father’/’mother’ of Dex is Rabbit (male or female is a-ok!), and ‘father’ of Sprocket is The Spine. Hatchworth and Zero are their uncles and Upgrade is their aunt. The Jon will be portrayed as another cousin/sibling or even an uncle depending on how you RP him (lately in the rps, Sprocket and Dex are the big siblings to The Jon). //Feel free to ask if you’d like to play a specific automaton or if you’d like me to play a specific automaton// Dex is a DJ ‘droid with a Boston accent and a cocky but cool and friendly attitude. He raps, plays the turntables and will do percussion or sometimes sing if he has to. Sprocket is an optimistic and caring steampunk robot with a Cockney British accent. She sings and plays ukulele and keyboard. Both of them will share/take turns on the keyboard. Dex was built in the Walter Robotics lab/manor during the Cyberpunk era, hence the reason he is Cyberpunk, and is powered by electricity rather than a boiler but is still able to drink oil and energy drinks for his energy chamber. He has a short fuse sometimes and will swear or snap at people isf feeling very moody, if under extreme stress he will walk during stasis (aka sleepwalking). Sprocket was built overseas in 1900 Britain by a man named Cyril Harvey in “Harvey Mechanics and Robotics”. She was made to be a performing robot, but after an accident years after she was made, she was pushed onto a boat and wound up in America, where she was soon found outside the Walter Manor. Because of this trauma, she has bouts of depression and blames herself for her creator’s death, experiencing a form of sleep paralysis at times, though she tends to hide her emotions to make others happy. Her ‘Harvey Core’ is located behind a panel on her back below her boiler, the core being where her tailbone should be, her casing is tin with a few gold details painted on the face, mainly going from her eyes to her ‘cheekbones’. Dex, on the other hand, has a Blue Matter Walter core on his chest, and he is made from a plastic casing over metal endo-skeleton with his circuits and wires safely hidden inside.
