In this video, we discuss the topic of when to file an Importer Security Filing (ISF) for heeled sandals in customs brokerage. The ISF is a filing required by US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for most ocean shipments coming into the United States. Footwear, including heeled sandals, falls under the Harmonized System (HS) Code 6403. The filing deadline for ISF depends on factors like the mode of transportation and the party responsible for filing. For ocean freight shipments, the ISF must be filed at least 24 hours before the cargo is loaded onto the vessel. If importing by air, the ISF must still be filed before the cargo arrives, with the exact deadline varying based on carrier and airport regulations. For Non-Vessel Operating Common Carrier (NVOCC) shipments, the responsibility of filing lies with the NVOCC. It's essential to work closely with your customs broker or freight forwarder to ensure timely and accurate filing.
