In this episode of our customs broker video series, we discuss how to avoid ISF penalties for hair claws. The Importer Security Filing (ISF) is a mandatory requirement by US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for shipments entering the United States by ocean vessel. To avoid penalties, timely and accurate filing of the ISF is crucial, as well as having a valid customs bond in place. When it comes to hair claws specifically, proper classification using the harmonized system (HS) code is essential, and consulting with a customs broker can ensure compliance. Providing complete and accurate information in the ISF filing, staying up to date with CBP guidelines, and establishing strong relationships with suppliers are also key steps in avoiding ISF penalties.
