general
Please note the letter vav.
This is a title in an expense list. I believe the writer wants to list the expenses made on עמילות and מכס.
I'm considering Customs and Customs Agency, but it's a bit "out there".
Feel free to be creative.

Customs clearance / Customs-related expenses
This is what it means.
The vav is totally superfluous here (probably because the Hebrew loves "x and y" combinations...).

| Thanks, Doron. It could also be that the writer is trying to be "clever"... The only problem with your suggestion is its length - it has to fit into MS Excel's Sheet name tab (31 characters w/spaces) at most. |
| Sorry, I just realized you suggested two separate options, so thanks and please disregard my comment which I cannot delete (an option we should ask the Proz.com developers to add). |
| Hahaha... funny way of dealing with things :-) |

Customs Revenue
Another option to consider...
"The Board of Customs performed many functions apart from the main one of the collection of the customs revenue."
http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/catalogue/DisplayCatalogu...
"Responsibility for customs revenue policy will remain with HMRC. 5. The following table sets out significant points of comparison that need to be made in order "

Perhaps more vague/generic than the other suggestions but if it's in a list, a possibility.

Customs Excise and Duty....is a bit long for your requirements but would have been another suggestion of mine.

Yeah, I just came to that conclusion too, now that would be way too "out there" :-)

Not even one single result for this exact string in Google advanced search.
On the other hand, some 22,200,000 advanced search results for "commission and customs", and even if not all of them are relevant, it's still rather convincing.
And since you say your "only constraint is the number of characters I can use. I can (barely) fit this in: Customs Fees&Broker Commissions," I would opt for the shorter term - the meaning is clear enough
