Customs Shield

Our mission is to make customs and trade compliance accessible to every UK business by providing an AI-powered platform that combines expert human knowledge with intelligent automation. We exist to remove the complexity, cost, and confusion that post-Brexit trade regulations have created for thousands of businesses who simply want to import and export without getting it wrong.

UK businesses struggle with post-Brexit customs compliance, 300,000+ companies face complex import/export regulations with no affordable, accessible support. Traditional consultancies charge £200+ per hour, operate 9-5, and are out of reach for SMEs. Most businesses either get it wrong, pay too much, or avoid international trade altogether because the compliance burden is too high.

Customs Shield connects businesses with certified customs experts through an AI-powered marketplace, available 24/7. Clara, our AI regulatory advisor, handles instant guidance on tariffs, classifications, and trade agreements. For complex queries, users are matched with verified experts in minutes. Trade tools including duty calculators, document scanners, and commodity code finders are built in, making compliance faster, cheaper, and less daunting.
