According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, to obtain a broker’s license, an individual must:

  • Be a citizen of the United States on the date of submission of the license application and not an officer or employee of the United States Government;
  • Attain the age of 21 prior to the date of submission of the license application;
  • Be of good moral character; and
  • Hold a passing score on the broker’s exam of 75% or higher.

An applicant must be at least 18 years of age on the date of the examination to be eligible to take the broker’s exam. An applicant has three years after passing the broker’s examination to apply for a broker’s license. The U.S. Office of Personnel Management assists Customs and Border Protection in the development, administration, and scoring of the Customs Broker License Examination.
