10+2 Importer Security Filing

The Importer Security Filing (ISF), also known 10+2, is a US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) regulation requiring importers and vessel carriers to provide advance data elements electronically to CBP for non-bulk cargo shipments in-bound into the United States by vessel. The focus of this initiative is to improve CBP's ability to recognize high-risk shipments in advance to ensure the safety of America's borders. ISF penalties are being issued for late or inaccurate filings. Importer Security Filing will be secured by a Customs bond.

ISF Report Cards

U.S. Customs will be providing ISF report cards to importers who request them. This is to be used as an educational tool for reflection on the ISFs filed by the importer. Since we are still in a non penalty phase ISF filers should be using this report to understand the timeliness and accuracy of their filings. To register for your ISF report please send an email to U.S. Customs at progress_report@cbp.dhs.gov.

The email should include: 1) Filer's corporate name 2) Filer code used for filing ISF 3) Point of Contact 4) Point of Contact's telephone number

See an example of an ISF Report Card.
