How to use this NVOCC index

Verification checklist

  • Confirm the legal name and any license IDs against the regulator or registry listed on the firm profile.
  • Check that the firm’s stated activity matches this broker category (NVOCC).
  • Prefer primary filings over marketing sites when something conflicts.
  • Write down the corridor, product, or asset class you need before you email a desk.

Oversight context

Depending on activity and location (US, World), oversight may sit with national or state regulators, self-regulatory organizations, or licensing boards. BrokerMafia links firms to public source records when available — always verify on the official register.

What is a NVOCC?

Non-vessel-operating common carriers licensed or registered with the FMC.

This vertical sits in the Transport & Logistics category. Regions commonly associated with listings here: US, World. Also searched as: NVO, non vessel operating common carrier.

BrokerMafia indexes 9737 firms in this vertical from public regulatory files and public firm-directory sitemaps (names/slugs only where noted). We do not sell placements on this hub.

Buyers usually land on a nvocc hub when they already know the desk type and need a shortlist with visible provenance. Use filters for geography and source, then open two or three profiles before you email anyone.

Who regulates this vertical?

There is no single global license for every nvocc. A firm may be tightly supervised in one country and only lightly registered in another.

How to choose and verify

Compare at least two nvocc profiles side by side. Check whether identifiers differ and whether the legal name matches invoices.

  • Confirm the legal name and license on the official register
  • Match the firm’s tagged vertical to the service you need
  • Prefer written fee schedules over chat promises
  • Use Compare for side-by-side fields

What this page does not prove

Limits of this index: firm counts (9737) are offline build-time totals. Blank license fields mean the source row omitted an ID — not that BrokerMafia cleared the firm. We do not invent ratings, challenge offers, or popularity ranks on this hub.

No. Some rows are coverage entries from public directories (name/slug). License IDs appear when the source publishes them. Missing ID means unknown, not approved.

How do I open a firm page?

Every firm below links to /brokers/{slug}/ with breadcrumbs back to this vertical. Search also returns the same profiles.

Does a listing mean BrokerMafia recommends the firm?
