through the freight forwarders
This means that the freight forwarders are responsible for collecting the payment.
In other words, it is the freight forwarders who administer the arrangement and collect the duty as the goods cross the border.
The freight forwarders´ office is the ´front person´ or ´public face´ that deals with incoming transport, then transfers the payment to the customs authority.
In practice the freight forwarders can collect the charge at any sensible point in their administration, but may have to present documentation at the border that it has been paid.
