Enter International Markets with USA Export - Powered by Asendia

Everyone’s fighting for a piece of the U.S. eCommerce pie. But here’s the thing—63% of that pie is somewhere else. And grabbing your slice? That’s where things get messy. Every country has its own customs rules, taxes, and delivery quirks. That makes global expansion a whole lot harder than just printing a label.
In fact, navigating international shipping can feel like decoding a foreign language—customs forms, duties, taxes, regulations—it’s a lot. That’s why teaming up with a global shipping expert isn’t just helpful, it’s essential if you want to grow beyond your own borders.
