Freight Trade Associations

This page offers sources of help and advice for traders and gives details of the two main trade associations you may need when dealing with freight forwarders, customs agents or brokers.


The British International Freight Association (BIFA) is a membership body representing 1,200 UK freight-services companies.


The International Federation of Freight Forwarders Associations (FIATA) is a global trade association for freight-services providers. BIFA is a member of FIATA, as are similar national associations from 150 countries.


How trade associations can help resolve problems

When trading internationally, it makes sense to use freight forwarders and other service providers that are members of trade bodies such as BIFA and FIATA. These organisations have codes of practice with which members must comply, so there should be less chance of problems arising.


A further benefit is that in instances where problems do arise, BIFA and FIATA can be called on to help ensure that disputes between freight forwarders and their clients are quickly resolved.
