In this video, we discuss the Importer Security Filing (ISF) and whether it can be filed for goods imported by an international organization or agency. The ISF is a requirement imposed by US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for all goods being imported into the United States by ocean carrier. We clarify that international organizations or agencies are not exempt from filing the ISF and must comply with the same customs regulations and requirements as any other importer. To complete the ISF filing, importers, including international organizations or agencies, may require the assistance of a licensed customs broker. It is crucial to provide accurate and complete information in the ten required data elements to avoid delays or penalties.
