Cross-border FAQ

  • What does FAST certification mean for a US-Mexico carrier?

    FAST (Free and Secure Trade) is a CBP/SAT joint program that pre-clears low-risk drivers and shipments for expedited border processing. FAST-certified carriers move through dedicated FAST lanes at the border, typically clearing in minutes rather than hours.
  • What's the difference between C-TPAT and FAST?

    C-TPAT (Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism) is the company-level supply-chain security certification on the US side. FAST is the driver-and-shipment-level expedited processing program. Carriers running US-Mexico freight typically pursue both: C-TPAT for the company and FAST for individual drivers.
  • Do I need bilingual dispatch for US-Mexico freight?

    Strongly recommended. Mexican customs (SAT) documentation, broker communication, and any in-country exception handling are conducted in Spanish. Carriers without bilingual dispatch tend to incur delays at border holds and during pedimento corrections.
  • What's a transfer carrier vs a through carrier?

    A transfer carrier hands freight off at the border to a separate Mexican carrier for the in-country leg. A through carrier (FMCSA-authorized OR with a Mexican subsidiary) hauls the entire route. Through service typically reduces transit time and damage but costs more per mile.
