Unraveling Customs Requirements: Do You Need to File an ISF for Toilet Plungers?

ISF Template | 562-453-7357 | isf@isftemplate.com | www.isftemplate.com

In this episode, we discuss the requirement of filing an Importer Security Filing (ISF) for toilet plungers. The necessity of filing an ISF for toilet plungers depends on the value of the shipment and the method of transportation. According to US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) regulations, an ISF must be filed for shipments imported by vessel. The ISF needs to be submitted at least 24 hours prior to the loading of the vessel at the foreign port of export. If the value of the toilet plungers exceeds $2,500, an Entry Summary, along with the ISF, must be filed. However, if the value is below $2,500, a simplified Entry Summary known as a "Section 321 Entry" may suffice. Compliance with other customs requirements, such as documentation, valuation, and regulation compliance, is still necessary even if an ISF is not required.
