So, when should you file?

The answer is simple—entry filing must be done prior to the arrival of your goods in the United States. It is essential to submit all required documentation and information in a timely manner to avoid any delays or penalties. At License To Import, we work diligently to ensure that your entry filings are completed accurately and on time.

But where should you file?

The entry filing is submitted electronically through the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) system, which is managed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). As your trusted customs broker, License To Import has direct access to this system, allowing us to efficiently submit all necessary documentation on your behalf.

What is Entry Filing anyway?

Entry filing, also known as the import entry declaration, is the process of providing CBP with the required information and documentation to facilitate the customs clearance of your imported goods. This information includes details about the goods, such as their value, quantity, and country of origin, as well as the necessary supporting documents, such as commercial invoices and bills of lading.

The entry filing serves multiple purposes. It helps CBP assess the correct duties and taxes that need to be paid for your imported goods. It also ensures compliance with various regulations, such as safety and security requirements. Moreover, the entry filing provides CBP with data that helps monitor and enforce trade laws and protect against the entry of counterfeit or prohibited goods.
