    I want to buy some wholesale products from Hong Kong.

    1. Do I need to hire a freight person?
    2. Do I need a customs broker?
    3. Do I need some kind of license?
    4. What are the fees I can expect?

    1. Do I need to hire a freight person?

    No, but it helps.

    2. Do I need a customs broker?

    No, but it helps.

    3. Do I need some kind of license?

    That depends on who you are buying from. Most true wholesale business require that you have a business/tax id.

    4. What are the fees I can expect?

    Duties/taxes depend on the type of product you are importing and the country it is manufactured. It is best to contact customs for exact percentages.

    This depends on the $$$ amount being imported. You can contact some customs brokers for estimates.
