CPA &
CFO Services Built for Import-Export Businesses
Running an import-export business takes serious coordination. You’re managing shipments, dealing with customs, juggling currency conversions, and making sure goods get from Point A to Point B without delays. The last thing you need is financial confusion slowing things down.
Straight Talk CPAs works with import-export businesses—whether you focus on one country or trade globally—to help bring structure to the numbers behind your operations. Whether it’s managing cash flow, reducing tax exposure, or planning for international growth, we’re here to help your business stay resilient, compliant, and competitive.
You already know how to move goods across borders. We help you move your business forward.
The Real Financial Challenges of Running an Import-Export Business
If you’ve dealt with any of these, you’re not alone:
Unpredictable Cash Flow – Waiting on overseas payments or clearing delays? It’s hard to keep cash steady when timing varies across borders.
High Upfront Costs – Shipping fees, tariffs, storage, customs duties—it adds up fast. And if clients don’t pay on time, you’re left floating the difference.
Complex Payroll & Contractor Payments – Paying warehouse staff, remote agents, or global contractors? You need it done right—without compliance headaches.
Tax Complications Across Borders – Missed deductions or poor planning in one country can lead to overpaying or triggering audits.
Tight Margins – Between international competition and variable logistics costs, every dollar matters. If your pricing isn’t based on real data, profits disappear.
This isn’t about mistakes—it’s the nature of international trade. The good news? We know how to fix it.

Real Results from Global Trade Clients We Support
Ravi – Import-Export Entrepreneur, Florida
Ravi was shipping wholesale goods across three continents, but his financials were all over the place. We helped him track margins by product, clean up his books, and build a cross-border tax strategy. He saved $18,000 in taxes last year—and now expands with confidence.
Clara – Global Freight Consultant, California
Clara’s team handled high-value shipments but had no real view into long-term profit. We helped her establish monthly financial reports, reduce customs-related write-offs, and confidently plan for international hires.
