OCS will be working with IIE again in 2008 as an official shipper of exhibitor materials.
Participating institutions shipping with OCS will not need to make any international shipments.
Instead, all boxes can be forwarded to our OCS trade fair hub in Boston.

From here, OCS will take care of the rest, including address labeling and export documentation.
OCS will pay all duties and taxes on your behalf overseas. You will have no customs clearance worries.
OCS performs all of these services seamlessly and automatically for all exhibitors shipping with OCS.
We will store all exhibitors’ materials in our overseas stations and deliver them on instruction from IIE, direct to the fair venue.

Complete shipping instructions will be emailed to all registered participants.
You can always contact OCS at fairs@shipOCS.com or by calling toll-free in the U.S. 1-877-2222-OCS.

Note: for participants NOT using OCS.

If you decide to use another carrier to ship directly overseas, your ship-to address will be the OCS agency address in each destination country. IIE has requested that OCS in each Fair city receive this type of “direct” freight.

After you register for the fair and complete the proper OCS forms, we will send you instructions on where to send boxes in each city, and what the charges will be.

Please do NOT ship any materials to the offices of IIE or the fair organizers.

It will be the responsibility of your carrier to deliver your materials “door-to-door” overseas to OCS.
Please make sure your carrier is able to clear customs in the countries you ship to, and make sure they can take care of duty and taxes for you. Please do NOT ship your materials as “cargo” or “door-to-airport”, because these services generally do NOT include customs clearance. Neither OCS nor IIE will be able to assist if your packages are delayed in customs or undeliverable due to improper labeling.
