Custom Clearing Agent at Lahore Dry Port.
Clear It In Your Own City.
You do not have to clear in Karachi. Move the container inland under customs bond and clear it at Lahore Dry Port — with a licensed agent whose office is a few minutes away, not 1,200 km down the road.
Most Punjab importers clear in the wrong place
Your container lands at Karachi. The default is to clear it there — and then pay to truck it 1,200 km to Lahore, while a Karachi sub-agent you have never met argues with an assessing officer and the demurrage clock runs.
The alternative: move it inland under customs bond and clear it at Lahore Dry Port. Same Goods Declaration, same duty, same WeBOC/PSW filing — but assessed in your own city, by an agent who is physically there. Capstone is based in Lahore, so this is home ground for us.
Four Reasons It Usually Costs Less
Free days start later
Cargo moves from Karachi under customs bond and is assessed at Lahore — so you are not fighting the Karachi terminal free-day clock while documents are sorted.
Your agent is in the room
Our office is in Lahore. When an assessing officer raises a query, someone walks in and answers it the same day instead of emailing Karachi.
Shorter final leg
For a Punjab-based importer, clearing at Lahore Dry Port means the container is already in your city when it is released.
Same WeBOC/PSW filing
Identical Goods Declaration process and identical duty — the only thing that changes is where the assessment and examination happen.
Karachi to Lahore, Under Bond.
One team handles the whole chain — you do not appoint a Karachi agent and a Lahore agent and hope they talk to each other.
Documents Pre-Audited
Invoice, packing list, B/L, HS code and permits checked before anything is filed, so the GD is right the first time.
Sealed In-Bond Transit
The consignment is entered for transit, sealed and moved from Karachi to Lahore Dry Port under customs control.
Filed & Assessed at Lahore
Goods Declaration filed on WeBOC/PSW at Lahore, with CPFTA or SRO concessions claimed where they apply.
Released & Delivered
Examination attended, duty settled, container released — then delivered to your factory anywhere in Punjab.
