Let's Get Started - Importing Cargo into the US

Are you an importer, forwarder or carrier? If so, requirements are different. Simply put, without someone "in the know" or with previous experience, this will be a search for WALDO. Today, let's first bring up National Security. For all import cargo coming into the US, even if it is staying on a carriers ship or air freight, all cargo details MUST be given to US Customs before it loads at its origin point overseas. Yep, all details..then, each shipment requires an Import Security Filing, and Automated Manifest Filing and a Customs Broker Entry. All of these can be done by the importer or by using a variety of other partners. Tune in tomorrow for more details on each.

By for now...
