In this response, we discuss the requirement for filing an Importer Security Filing (ISF) for boys' coats and outerwear. We begin by defining what ISF is and its purpose in enhancing security measures. We then explore whether ISF needs to be filed for boys' coats and outerwear, considering the Harmonized System Code 61.10.00.00 that covers these items. The regulations state that ISF is not required for personal shipments or goods not intended for sale, but if the items are imported for commercial purposes, including resale, ISF must be filed. However, even if ISF is not required for non-commercial shipments, other customs requirements and documentation may still apply. It is advisable to consult a licensed customs broker for guidance to ensure compliance with all applicable regulations.
