AI agent for customs brokers

Client Compliance Records Agent

Every active client has current, matching compliance documents

Client Compliance Records Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

A brokerage must keep a current power of attorney, customs bond, importer number and know-your-customer checks for each client, and an expired document can stop filings without warning. Each month this agent reads client files and lists each document's expiry date. It checks whether each bond is large enough, flagging any bond under 10 percent of last year's duty. Documents expiring within 60 days get renewal reminders. The compliance lead approves every client message and any decision to stop filing for a client. When a document comes back, the agent verifies that names and numbers match the client record. If something does not match, it asks for a corrected document and checks again. A client that changed its legal name needs new documents, not a renewal. Edge case: a merged client is treated as a new client for know-your-customer checks.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

An example run

What happensIn the June review, a client's bond was $50,000 while last year's duty was $720,000, so the agent flagged it as too low and drafted a reminder. The compliance lead approved it. The new bond paperwork arrived June 18, but the record check failed: it showed the client's old company name. The agent asked for corrected paperwork, which arrived June 24 and passed.
