Hey, I do not think so. Plus, there are so many factors that should be taken into consideration that you`d better ask for some professional help. I would rather recommend to check out that company https://clearitusa.com/ and get all information required at some free consultation. You see, this company is specializing on such cases and Im pretty sure they will help you. This has been my first import transaction. While it has not completed, my experience so far has been incredibly kind and helpful. Cheers

I looked into this many years ago and the answer was yes you could do it yourself after some proper certifications and posting a bond. However, the time and effort required compared to the cost of using a professional custom house broker made me decide not to pursue it. Focus on what you do best and don't worry about this very small expense.
