Are you still contemplating how to establish and enforce the advanced data reporting requirements under Importer Security Filing? Like anything, good communication and training is imperative, especially with something like this that carries stiff monetary penalties or that could result in a “Do Not Load” message next January and requires significant change to the current methods in place for centuries.
