Passport
International shipping, compliance, and localization for DTC ecommerce brands
Passport provides international shipping, compliance, and localization for DTC ecommerce brands.
Overview
Passport sells cross-border shipping, duties and tax handling, compliance services, and local fulfillment to ecommerce brands that sell internationally. It is meant to let brands ship to international customers, show landed costs at checkout, and expand into new markets without building their own global operations team. Passport is part of Global-e following its acquisition, and it also acquired Brand Access in 2025 to extend local fulfillment and operations.
For Shopify brands
- Shipping, duty and tax calculation, and compliance work for international orders are handled by Passport's team and platform instead of an in-house global operations team.
- Shoppers see landed-cost pricing at checkout, VAT-inclusive pricing, branded tracking pages, and proactive tracking after purchase.
- Brands can add local fulfillment, marketplace selling on TikTok Shop and Amazon, or Seller of Record service later without changing providers.
How it works
Passport combines a cross-border shipping network, checkout and duty and tax tools, and in-house compliance experts in one platform. Brands can ship with DDU or DDP options and can connect through 3PL and technology partner integrations. Passport's team supports customs, tax, regulatory and growth questions.
