A clearing company that decided to work like a tech company
Skies Shipping & Clearing is a family-run, licensed customs clearing and freight company in Beirut. What makes us different isn't the license — it's what we built on top of it.
Why we built our own portal
Clearing in Lebanon has always worked the same way: you hand your shipment to a broker, and then you call. You call to ask if the vessel arrived. You call to ask if customs released it. You call to ask what you owe — and you take the number on faith.
We decided our clients deserve what we see from the inside. So we built our own client portal: every shipment gets a live status through the full clearing lifecycle, every document and official duties receipt is uploaded to your account, and every status change sends you an email automatically. No competitor in Lebanon offers this.
We're still a family company. The same people answer the phone every time, and the owner knows your file. The technology doesn't replace that — it means when you do call us, it's never to ask "where is my shipment?"
What we run on
Transparency
We show clients the official customs duties receipts — the actual paper, in your account. You pay what the state charged, and you can see it.
Our own technology
The portal isn't bought software. We built it around how clearing in Beirut actually works, and we improve it from client feedback.
Itemized everything
Fee requests come broken down line by line. No lump sums, no 'miscellaneous charges'.
Family accountability
25+ years at the Port of Beirut and Beirut Airport. Your file has an owner with a name, not a ticket number.
This is what your account looks like
Live statuses through the full lifecycle, documents and duty receipts, and automatic email updates — for every shipment, on every account. Accounts are created by us for our clients; ask for yours when you ship with us.
