We highlight the importance of accuracy in filing the ISF to avoid delays or penalties. The steps include gathering the required information, choosing the appropriate filing method, submitting the ISF, monitoring the shipment status, and considering the assistance of a customs broker. It is crucial to consult with a customs broker or CBP for specific and up-to-date information relating to your importation scenario.
