What is a 10+2 ISF Filing?

ISF stands for Importer Security Filing. As of January 26, 2009, all importers in the United States must notify US Customs and Border Protection of any ocean freight coming into the US. This rule was put into practice so that the Department of Homeland Security would have knowledge of all foreign imports shipping out by ocean freight, 24 hours prior to the event. This rule was put into place to protect the US from acts of terrorism.

Many importers have little or no knowledge of US Customs bond systems. Therefore, most importers work directly with a customs broker or transportation and logistics company to handle the filing requirements. US Customs and Border Protection realized that compliance would be difficult for some, so they granted a one year delay on enforcement. Now that January 26, 2010 has passed, bonds are required for importing by way of ocean shipping. You must obtain the bond before you can file.

Four types of bonds are acceptable and meet the ISF filing requirement; custodial bonds, basic importation bonds, international carrier bonds, and foreign trade zone operator bonds. Continuous bonds are preferred.

If you are an importer using a transportation company to handle the import filing process, the transportation company can use their bonds to file and secure the transaction. However, the liability of accuracy still lies on the importer. Bonding is required for both filing and entry of the ocean freight.

Some importers use specialty software to bring 10+2 ISF filing in-house. By using this software or application, ISF entries can be sent directly to customs. Most importers find it possible to do their own ISF filing, but find the entry filing requirements more difficult. Smaller importers are sometimes unable to acquire the bonding that they need for initial filing and entry filing, and find it necessary to go through a third party service provider.

Ocean freight and ocean shipping transportation and logistics companies offer a wide variety of services, including 10+2 ISF bonding and filing. They also may provide rail freight and cargo services, international forwarding services, ocean cargo services, and more.
