ISF Depot // 661-246-8217 // customs@isfdepot.com // www.isfdepot.com
The video provides an overview of ISF filing and entry filing, their importance in customs brokerage, and the key components involved in each process. ISF filing is a mandatory requirement by US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for all importers of ocean freight entering the United States. It aims to enhance security and assess potential risks associated with the cargo before it arrives. The ISF form includes information about the buyer, seller, manufacturer, shipment routing, first foreign port, HTS codes, container stuffing location, bill of lading number, and estimated arrival date. On the other hand, entry filing involves providing detailed information about imported goods to ensure compliance with regulations and customs laws. A customs bond is a crucial element of entry filing as it serves as a financial guarantee to ensure the importer fulfills all customs obligations. The documentation package for entry filing includes the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading or airway bill, and any other necessary documents. Overall, understanding ISF filing and entry filing is essential for all parties involved in international trade and customs brokerage.
