We&#8217;ve found these are the driving forces behind direct-filing your Customs entries. Below are examples of our 3 C&#8217;s of direct-filing.<br /> <br /> <span class="content2">Compliance</span><br /> <img src="images/bullet.jpg" width="8" height="8" />&nbsp; No one knows your product better, or will demonstrate greater &#8220;reasonable care&#8221;<br /> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;in the preparation and filing of your customs entries, than your own personnel. <br /> <br /> <img src="images/bullet.jpg" width="8" height="8" />&nbsp; Companies who direct-file their entries generally increase their compliance rating <br /> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;with Customs and Border Protection (CBP) by several percentage points. <br /> <br /> <img src="images/bullet.jpg" width="8" height="8" /> In many cases we&#8217;ve found that the majority of US Importers are already providing<br /> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the essential entry data (such as tariff classification, value and origin) to their<br /> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;appointed broker. If that&#8217;s the case, the remaining data elements on the CBP entry<br /> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;document are elementary in nature (such as vessel name and import date). <br /> <br /> <img src="images/bullet.jpg" width="8" height="8" /> You get up-to-the-minute real time information directly from CBP so you&#8217;re better<br /> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;informed and have the most recent CBP Directives and Administrative Messages. <br /> <br /> <img src="images/bullet.jpg" width="8" height="8" /> TRG Direct facilitates the payment of duties by using CBP&#8217;s ACH debit or credit system.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TRG Direct clients with ACE accounts can benefit from a one-time cash flow improvement<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;by leveraging the CBP Periodic Monthly Statement (PMS) through ACE. <br /> <br /> <span class="content2">Control</span><br /> <img src="images/bullet.jpg" width="8" height="8" /> In the time it takes to call your broker to trace a shipment, you can actually file the entry directly with customs and receive the <br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;electronic messages related to clearance and release of the consignment directly from CBP. <br /><br /> <img src="images/bullet.jpg" width="8" height="8" /> TRG Direct customers have much greater visibility into their supply chains. <br /><br /> <img src="images/bullet.jpg" width="8" height="8" /> TRG Direct customers are in better touch with their vendor s performance on the timeliness and accuracy of documentation presented<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;by them. This allows TRG Direct clients to immediately address compliance issues with their vendors or suppliers resulting in<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;dramatically improved compliance. <br /><br /> <img src="images/bullet.jpg" width="8" height="8" /> Using TRG Direct gives you the ability to pre-file your entries with CBP and actually obtain clearance information up to five (5) full days<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;before the vessel arrives at its US port of destination. Assuming your consignment isn t targeted by CBP for examination, pre-filed and<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;pre-cleared shipments can be moved as soon as the vessel completes discharging. In some cases you can actually take one or two full<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;days out of your supply chain transit time resulting in greater efficiency and improved cash flow. <br /><br /> <img src="images/bullet.jpg" width="8" height="8" /> Converting to TRG Direct can be accomplished at your own pace. Direct-filing your entries is not an  all or nothing proposition. The<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;transition can be done in a phased or gradual approach, while maintaining relationships with your existing customs broker. <br /><br /> <br /> <span class="content2">Cost</span><br /> <img src="images/bullet.jpg" width="8" height="8" /> The <a href="SavingsCalculator.aspx">savings</a> of the difference in cost between your current entry through your broker (probably $75 or more) and TRG Direct can be<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;significant. In a highly competitive environment, Importers are always looking for ways to reduce costs. TRG Direct represents an<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;opportunity for Importers to save up to 80% on brokerage fees and expenses; while significantly improving their compliance<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;and control.<br /><br /> <img src="images/bullet.jpg" width="8" height="8" /> When using the TRG Direct entry system, your entry fees are fixed (based on the pricing plan you chose, $20 or $30); not variable,<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;depending on the lines of classification, number of commercial invoices, or other ancillary typical charges. <br /><br /> <img src="images/bullet.jpg" width="8" height="8" /> When <a href="isf_background.html">10+2</a> is rolled out, our system will be retrofitted with the appropriate screens for transmission of the Security Filing (10+2 data)<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;and your company will save the difference between the retail cost of the 10+2 data set and TRG Directs pricing which will be<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;approximately 75-80% less than market prices. <br /><br /> <img src="images/bullet.jpg" width="8" height="8" /> TRG Direct provides your company with internet based <a href="direct_filing_ABIsolution.aspx">ABI</a> connectivity 24 x 7 x 365, for one low fee, with no minimums and no<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;maximums. <br /><br /> </p> </td> </tr> <tr class="content"> <td height="39" align="center" valign="top" class="bottomline" style="padding:15px 15px 15px 15px "> TRG Direct is a product of TBI Brokers, Inc.
