Foreign Trade Zones

You can set up your own FTZ.


What are FTZs?


Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) are secure areas under U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) supervision that are generally considered outside CBP territory upon activation. Located in or near CBP ports of entry, they are the United States' version of what are known internationally as free-trade zones.



What are the Benefits of FTZs?


  • CBP duty and federal excise tax, if applicable, are paid when the merchandise is transferred from the zone for consumption. 


  •  While in the zone, merchandise is not subject to U.S. duty or excise tax. Certain tangible personal property is generally exempt from state and local ad valorem taxes. 


  •  Goods may be exported from the zone free of duty and excise tax.  


  • CBP security requirements provide protection against theft. 


  •  Merchandise may remain in a zone indefinitely, whether or not subject to duty. 


  •  The rate of duty and tax on the merchandise admitted to a zone may change as a result of operations conducted within the zone. Therefore, the zone user who plans to enter the merchandise for consumption to CBP territory may normally elect to pay either the duty rate applicable on the foreign material placed in the zone or the duty rate applicable on the finished article transferred from the zone whichever is to his advantage.  Merchandise imported under bond may be admitted to a FTZ for the purpose of satisfying a legal requirement of exporting the merchandise. 



Domestic Entries- 7501

Detail your services

The CBP Form 7501, also known as "Entry Summary" is a mandatory document that is used by the CBP to analyze and determine the accuracy of information regarding the imported commodity. The form provides details of appraisement, origin, and classification, among other key bits of information.

In Bonds

Detail your services

The in-bond process allows imported merchandise to be entered at one U.S. port of entry without appraisement or payment of duties and transported by a bonded carrier to another U.S. port of entry or other authorized destination provided all statutory and regulatory conditions are met.

Bonded Warehouse

Detail your services

A bonded warehouse is a warehouse operated by a private company in a foreign country under the regulatory supervision of that country's customs agency. Its main advantage is to defer the payment of customs duties. 


A bonded warehouse, or bond, is a building or other secured area in which dutiable goods may be stored, manipulated, or undergo manufacturing operations without payment of duty. It may be managed by the state or by private enterprise. In the latter case a customs bond must be posted with the government.
