Your cargo is stuck at customs.
Your freight is being rolled over to next week's vessel due to a documentation error that was not caught in time.
Your DG shipment has been rejected due to incorrect DGD or MSDS.
I fix these problems before they happen.
A Seasoned Global Logistics Specialist with over 5+ years of experience in handling import and export operations. Every day, I manage end-to-end operations for a Fortune 500 Sportwear brand. From FCA movements to full documentation, carrier coordination, cargo planning, and zero-error compliance for shipments of around 100-120 FFEs per week to US, EU, and EM regions.
If your shipments are being held, rejected, delayed, or fined, the problem is almost always due to issues with the documentation or compliance process. That's where I come in.

WHAT I DO FOR YOU
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
๐ Import & Export Documentation Review & Correction
Your BoL, Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Certificate of Origin, and Shipping Instructions are audited line by line and corrected before your cargo ships. One error can cost you a vessel. I make sure it never happens.
โฃ๏ธ Dangerous Goods Declaration (DGD) Preparation
Full DGD preparation and IMDG compliance review for chemical, hazmat, pharmaceutical, and ISO tank shipments. Carrier rejections are expensive. I eliminate them.
๐ Import & Export Compliance Audit
A complete review of your current import & export process, every gap identified, every risk flagged, before customs or your carrier does it for you.
๐ Incoterms Advisory
Most SMEs use the incorrect Incoterm and only discover it when the cost dispute arises. I tell you exactly which term protects you, in plain language, with a written recommendation.
๐ Logistics SOP Writing
Clear, step-by-step process documents for your export or import operations โ written from real daily ops experience, not a textbook.
๐ข Freight & Carrier Advisory
Carrier selection, booking coordination, shipment exception handling, and escalation management โ the operational muscle behind every clean shipment.

WHO I WORK BEST WITH
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
โฆ E-commerce brands shipping internationally for the first time
โฆ Importers and exporters cross-trade goods.
โฆ Chemical, pharmaceutical, and hazmat companies needing DG compliance
โฆ Importers sourcing from Pakistan, South Asia, or beyond
โฆ Any business that has experienced customs delays, DG rejections, or documentation surprises and never wants it to happen again.
Currently, I'm also executing time-critical ocean freight for a major international 2026 sporting event, where one wrong document means a missed deadline in front of a global audience. Zero margin for error. That's the standard I work to, every single day.
I don't consult from a course.
I manage real freight, for real brands, under real pressure โ every single day at Maersk.
When you hire me, you get that same level of precision applied to your shipment.
Let's talk.

Hi! Iโm Abdul Rehman โ a detail-oriented Logistics & Supply Chain Specialist with a Masterโs in Logistics and Supply Chain Management and hands-on experience managing end-to-end U.S. import operations from the Asia-Pacific and ISC (Indian Subcontinent) regions.
With the recent surge in U.S. import tariffs, I help businesses navigate changing trade regulations, minimize duty exposure, and move goods efficiently and compliantly. From shipment booking and documentation to customs clearance and last-mile delivery, I ensure a cost-effective and disruption-free process from origin to destination.
Regions Covered:
๐ Asia-Pacific (China, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Japan, Cambodia)
๐ Indian Subcontinent (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka)
Hereโs how I can support your business in a high-tariff environment:
Strategically manage U.S.-bound logistics via ocean and air freight
Optimize Incoterms and documentation to reduce tariff impact
Prepare and process customs documents for compliant import clearance
Work closely with customs brokers and carriers to avoid delays and penalties
Identify alternative sourcing or routing options to avoid high-duty lanes
Leverage data to track landed costs and improve margins
Tools & Platforms:
โ Freight & Customs Systems: WCA, Descartes
โ ERP Systems: SAP, Oracle
โ Analytics: Excel (Advanced), Power BI
Over the years, I led import operations across Asia-Pacific and ISC regions, improving delivery performance and lowering freight costsโeven amid tightening trade regulations. My focus today is helping businesses adapt quickly to tariff changes without compromising efficiency or compliance.
Letโs work together to navigate the new import landscape with confidence.

Goods reaches the destination - smoothly, makes me and client happy. With masters in Logistics & Supply Chain Management, and 4 years of professional experience in global logistics (US imports), I try my best while coordinating with all concerned parties (consignees, shipping lines, truckers, warehouses, overseas agents etc.) to deliver the cargo timely.
Excellent command in all US import operations starting from shipment starts, ISF filing, client vendor communication, customs clearance, FDA compliances (expertise in cosmetics and medical devices), tariff classifications (reciprocals, 232 and all duties chaos), delivery arrangements, POD handling and lastly, billing (making sure no one gets late payment) - hence a one window operation!
Sit back and let me help your cargo reach the destination, without hustle!
