We begin by emphasizing the importance of evaluating ISF filing options and considering outsourcing to a customs broker. Next, we highlight the significance of understanding the factors that contribute to compliance costs, such as shipment frequency, and suggest ways to optimize these costs by consolidating shipments or adjusting ordering patterns. We then recommend negotiating favorable rates with customs brokers and tailoring services to specific needs. Additionally, we stress the importance of investing in internal training and education to minimize errors and delays in the filing process. Lastly, we emphasize the benefits of maintaining strong inventory management practices, including accurate record-keeping and using technology solutions.
