After your hunt:
If you have not been set up with a Customs Broker and have already gone on your hunt overseas, we suggest you contact our Customs Broker, Coppersmith, immediately upon return from your hunt to provide them details of who now has your trophies. They will monitor the progress of your trophies dip and pack processing and be in communication with an overseas shipping agent. They will contact you once the trophies are received. You will have to arrange with Coppersmith and pay them for their services. Coppersmith will assist you with CITIES and other import/export paperwork, clearn your shipment on your behalf through customs and USFW. They will then ship the trophies to us and or our certified USDA facility for tanning and processing of skins.
