In the following link to CSMS message regarding U.S. goods returned, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) issued updated guidance on an importers and broker’s responsibilities for U.S. and foreign goods returning under HTS 9801.00.10.
Under HTS 9801.00.10, goods are allowed to be entered duty-free, if the importer has the required documentation to prove the goods were either:
In this guidance, CBP places the burden or proof on the importer to substantiate their claim for duty-free treatment under HTS 9801.00.10 with proper supporting documentation. Customs brokers have the responsibility to advise the importer what documentation is required as part of the importer’s records.
The following are forms of proper documentation:
These declarations are to be retained and provided, if requested, to CBP and ensure that the appropriate person is authorized to sign the declarations.
For U.S. manufactured goods valued over $2500 and entered three years after the date of exportation which are not clearly marked with the name and address of the original U.S. manufacturer, CBP may require, in additional to the above declarations a affidavit from the original manufacturer.
CBP also request proof of export from the USA for U.S. manufactured goods or foreign origin goods, provided the information contained proves an export from the United States. The following are acceptable forms of proof of export:
For December, we are highlighting Jeffrey Bispham on the West Coast! Jeff has been in the industry for 26 years and remembers using a typewriter to prepare 7512's. He has always worked in the import/customs brokerage side of logistics. Jeff was adopted as part of the JAS Family when JAS acquired Tigers back in 2021 where Jeff had long tenure.
In October 2023, the JAS Forwarding (USA) Tacoma Foreign Trade Zone became an active FTZ in the JAS USA Network. Jeff became the FTZ administrator of that site and has been instrumental in building the compliance for our FTZ site on the West Coast.
Jeff enjoys all sports, although he would tell all that he has become more of a spectator than a player as the years have passed. Jeff enjoys being outdoors. But most of all, he enjoys spending time with his family. That time can often occur at the beach, or a Seattle sporting event (Mariners, Seahawks and Kraken).
Jeff is yet another great example that People Make the Difference!
